The 'LOVE' album (US $12.99) includes exclusive, previously-unreleased 'LOVE' versions of "The Fool on the Hill" and "Girl," and comes as an iTunes LP featuring an art gallery that blends images of the Beatles with colorful photos from the acclaimed stage production.  'LOVE' will also be available to purchase and download as individual songs.

The 'All Together Now' documentary (US $12.99 HD) will be offered with iTunes Extras including the 84-minute film, three bonus featurettes and a trailer for the 'LOVE' stage production, and is also available to rent.

'LOVE,' a Cirque du Soleil creation and co-production with The Beatles' company, Apple Corps Ltd., celebrates the musical legacy of The Beatles and is presented exclusively at The Mirage in Las Vegas.  This joint artistic venture, born from the personal friendship between George Harrison and Guy Laliberte, marks the first time that Apple Corps Ltd. has agreed to a major theatrical partnership.  Since opening to rave reviews on June 30, 2006, 'LOVE' has played to more than four million audience members.

To create the lush soundscape for 'LOVE,' producers Sir George Martin and Giles Martin worked with the entire archive of Beatles master recordings at EMI's Abbey Road Studios. This unique approach to assembling the music for a live show was rapturously received by the critics and Beatles fans and resulted in the groundbreaking album The Beatles 'LOVE' garnering two GRAMMY Awards®, in the categories of Compilation Soundtrack Album for Motion Picture, Television or other Visual Medium and Surround Sound Album.    

The GRAMMY®-winning 'All Together Now' documentary, directed by Adrian Wills, and its bonus features detail the fascinating story behind the unique partnership between The Beatles and Cirque du Soleil that resulted in the creation and launch of 'LOVE.'  

On November 16, 2010, The Beatles' 13 legendary remastered studio albums, the two-volume 'Past Masters' compilation, and the classic '1962-1966' ('Red') and '1967-1970' ('Blue') collections were released on iTunes® worldwide as albums or individual songs.  On the same date, a special digital 'Beatles Box Set' was released on iTunes featuring the "Live at the Washington Coliseum, 1964" concert film, a worldwide iTunes exclusive which captures The Beatles' very first U.S. concert.  The exclusive box set features all of the remastered audio and visual elements included in The Beatles' stereo box set, released on CD in 2009 and GRAMMY®-nominated this year in the Historical Album category.

The Beatles have now sold more than five million songs and one million albums on iTunes worldwide.
