There is a picture of MJ on Wikipedia's main page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Main_Page

It mentions how he owns the rights to The Beatles', Eminem's and Akon's songs. Nice to see something positive.

In 1998, Jackson announced plans to sell the royalties generated by the Beatles, Bob Dylan and other musicians whose work is controlled by Sony/ATV.

Jackson denied rumours that he was to planning sell the Beatles' song catalogue in May 2001.

The value of Sony/ATV Music Publishing has varied in reports. In 2002, Forbes estimated Jackson's 50% stake in the company, along with other music publishing ventures, to be worth $450 million.[21] The organisation was valued at $700 million in 2003.[22] Industry experts valued the catalog at between $600 million to $1 billion in 2004,

Sell the royalties, not the rights. As head of the company, MJ would be able to do that, I think. Unless it means the royalties he earns from the work and not Sony's part of the income. :scratch:
