It's hard to keep track of these things, and the rights to the Beatles catalog has a long an checkered history, and there's the whole issue of Apple Records vs. Apple Computers being different companies united only in choice of name, but, as I understand it, at present: EMI (the business successor of Apple Records, formerly part of Apple Corps) owns the Beatles recordings. Apple, Inc. (formerly Apple Computers) has a license to distribute the music via iTunes.
