(Sigh) According to some media reports, Michael allegedly left the portion of the Beatles catalog that he owned to Paul McCartney in his will in order to repair the rift between them over it. I hope not. I was hoping Paul would NEVER get his hands on it again. Especially since he was acting like such a jerk about it. Dude, Michael outbid you fair and square. Move the hell on!

I always thought that McCartney should own a larger portion than Jackson did, since he was a Beatles. Maybe he did.

Well then he should have gotten whatever he needed in order to purchase it. There are artists who don't own their own catalogs. It is just the nature of the business.

Uh huh, there is some etiquette that goes with the business, which is why there was a bit of drama in that.
