The living legend that is Sir Paul McCartney has removed his catalogue of solo work from streaming services in the US, coincidentally just before performing an exclusive set that’ll be streamed through iTunes later today.
The order to pull the music from the internet streams, leaked to Digital Music News, requests that solo music from McCartney and tracks from that amazing band he was in before going solo (Wings) be removed from “all streaming services” across the board.
The thirty years of hits and misses are still available for direct download purchase, though, if you’ve still got gaps in your historical back catalogue that need filling. And his live iTunes performance is kicking off at about 2.00am UK time [iTunes link], if you’re a Macca fan and still able to stay awake that late. [TUAW via DMN]

Is that sarkiness I detect about Wings?
No! But I’ve never really liked the Beatles
WHAT.
I’ve never really liked the Beatles either so that will be no loss.
I’ll take Daydreamer Believer over any Beatles song!
I’ll take Daydream Believer over a lot of Beatles songs but nowhere near all.
I ain’t a big Beatles fan, but how did we get left with Macca and Ringo, where is the justice in that?
I assume that this was a condition applied to the large cheque Mr McCartney received from Apple.
Nice to see he’s still about peace and love…as long as you give him money for songs everyone must own by now
