Apple Apple Double Fantasy
Apple Inc, the owners of iPod and iTunes, and Apple Records, home of The Beatles, have ended their long running feud over who should release Double Fantasy as a download, the album that famously has good tracks by John Lennon and unlistenable ones Yoko Ono. It had been Apple Inc's intention to release only John Lennon's half of the album, stating that, 'No one wanted to listen to that screeching harpy in the first place. At least now people can download the tracks they actually want instead of having to skip every other song.' Apple Records, however, under the guidance of Yoko Ono and the spirit of John Lennon, refused to let the album be released without her music and load wailing ruining it. 'John says he wants me to sing with him and let the people love,' said Yoko incoherently and under the misapprehension that she was in some way 'in touch' with the dead Beatle. George Harrison, who is also dead, said he was pleased the two companies had come to an agreement, 'whatever it was.'
