The lately late Kurt Vonnegut once wrote that there is only one question you need to ask a person the first time you meet them in order to get a complete insight into their life.  "What's your favourite Beatles song?"

A friend of mine took this idea and turned it into an interview question (I ought to point out that he runs a PR agency, so he's  looking for ideas people rather than  intellectual rigour).  He would sit opposite nervous candidates, grill them for an hour or so and then ask them, as a final question, "Beatles: Red or Blue?".  His idea was that the candidate would either:

a) Answer "Red", showing themselves up as something of a traditionalist
b) Answer "Blue", showing themselves as likely to have something of a drug-addled past
c) Answer "What?", showing that they have no soul

So the news that all of the various law-suits surrounding the Beatles music have been resolved, paving the way for digital downloads of the Fab Four's music.  It will be interesting to see which of the tunes becomes the world's favourite if this eventually happens.  My guess is that the results will be slightly disappointing.
