Following the announcement this morning that The Beatles EMI catalog was available on iTune's as digital downloads for the first time, I asked EMI when we could expect to see The Beatles to also be available via Amazon and other digital retailers. Apparently, the answer is **not anytime soon**.

The Beatles are "exclusive with iTunes into 2011," an EMI spokesperson told Hypebot this morning. That leaves Jobs & CO the sole beneficiary of any Beatles Christmas sales bump. Score another victory for Cupertino.
