Sir Paul McCartney has revealed that discussions over whether the Beatles back-catalogue can be digitalised have “stalled”.

At a press conference in London this afternoon (November 24th), McCartney said there had been “a couple of sticking points”, despite all of the Beatles estates and living members being in favour of a deal.

"It's stalled – there are a couple of sticking points between EMI and The Beatles. No change there then,” he added bashfully.

Fans have along called for the Beatles music to be digitalised for the 21st century.
