Is "The Beatles" music library coming to music streaming services soon?

The Beatles, the popular music group comprised of John Lennon, Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr founded in 1960, is described as the "most influential band in history," per The Beatles Music.

Those who were extremely smitten with their kind of music may get to enjoy listening to their songs in the 21st century and even share their music to the younger generations via modern technology.

Billboard reported that the famous band may now finally arrive on streaming services, citing its sources who are knowledgeable of the ongoing negotiations on the matter. It is an interesting development as "The Beatles" had always been adamant in taking part of the "digital age" manner of listening to music.

The publication added that ardent followers could expect "Hey Jude" be available on Thursday, Christmas Eve, Dec. 24. Streaming services like Apple, Tidal, Deezer and Slacker have not yet returned the outlet's request for comment. Rhapsody and Spotify both were contacted but would not like to make any comment about the news. A Spotify representative specifically remarked that their company "would not comment on that." So, could there be a greater chance that negotiations are really taking place?

In the meantime, a part of "The Beatles'" huge portfolio of 309 songs can be streamed on Pandora, New York Daily News noted.

Will The Beatles music via online streaming be received well?

The band's songs were covered by several music artists over the years, including iconic artists themselves like Earth Wind & Fire, U2 and Jimi Hendrix, noted Paste Magazine.

Their lyrics also have a classic theme of love and everything about life, which will still appeal to the younger crowd.

For instance, here are some words of their hit song "I Will," per AZ Lyrics.

"Who knows how long I've loved you? You know I love you still. Will I wait a lonely lifetime? If you want me to, I will."

More than that, The Beatles have loyal fans until now, who would be more than willing to hear them again and again.

The Indianapolis Colts owner, Jim Irsay, just paid $2.25 million for Ringo Starr's 963 Ludwig Oyster Black Pearl drum kit, noted Rolling Stone. He also purchased several collectibles through the years to bring back together these instruments.

"I was 11 years old when the Beatles broke up...there was always this dream of the Beatles getting back together; there was always this hope," Irsay shared.

"I know it's a symbolic thing, but it really means a lot to me," Irsay said.
