What doesn't get mentioned there is that he swooped in and bought those rights out from under Paul McCartney and Yoko Ono, pretty much backstabbing a friend over business. Awesome that he didn't bury CTW, but there's a not-so-sunny side here too.

That seems like an oversimplification, middleclasstool. There are so many myths surrounding the Beatles that it's hard to separate the wheat from the chaff. The Snopes write-up is pretty thorough as always.
