Big news… classic albums by The Beatles such as Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band will be released on streaming services. That should cover just about everyone who isn’t still weeping over the demise of Rdio, and Beatles tunes will reportedly be available on both the free and paid tiers of any services where that distinction exists.

Just in time for the holidays, The Beatles finally join streaming services like Spotify and Apple Music.

According to Statistic Brain, the Beatles had sold 2.3 billion albums as of February 2014; 585,000 albums on iTunes; and 2.8 million iTunes singles.

The band’s recordings are controlled by its own management company, Apple Corps, and music conglomerate Universal which took over the catalogue from defunct label EMI.

Streaming music has gained some major additions over the past couple of years, including Metallica and Led Zeppelin.

This year, Taylor Swift made the decision to pull her tracks off of Spotify following the release of her album 1989, while Adele’s record-breaking third LP 25 is still not available to stream.

The Billboard magazine reported last week that Beatles’ music was coming to a streaming service, but did not specify which one.
