The Beatles' record label has moved to dampen rumours that the band's music is
about to become available online.
The Fab Four are on of the last major acts to withhold their back catalogue from
stores like iTunes and Napster.
UK download site Wippit indicated it would be first to sell the songs in a
headline on its press release pages.
Record company EMI said the statement was untrue and has asked for it to be
removed. Representatives for Wippit were unavailable for comment.
EMI is believed to be on the verge of releasing The Beatles' back catalogue as
digital downloads.

A press release was advertised on Wippit's site
A potential deal with iTunes became more likely last month when the band's
record label Apple Corps settled a long-running trademark dispute with
technology giant Apple Inc.
After settling their differences, Apple Corps manager Neil Aspinall said the
Beatles looked forward to "many years of peaceful co-operation" with the
computer firm.
In January, Apple Inc boss Steve Jobs teased Beatles fans by calling up a
selection from the band's Sergeant Pepper album when he unveiled the company's
iPhone.
'Beatles Top 10'
Wippit posted the Beatles announcement on its website last Friday. The headline
reads: "The Beatles available for download on Wippit."
But the full text of the press release, which is dated Wednesday 14 March, is
unavailable.
Winning the online distribution rights to the Beatles' music would be a major
coup for the company.
HMV spokesman Gennaro Castaldo says a top 10 made up entirely of Beatles' tracks
"would be almost guaranteed" as soon as the songs go on sale.
