I think Paul McCartney bought back the rights to his songs several years ago.

Actually, no. To date, Michael Jackson owns every song in the Beatles songbook, save two: Love Me Do and P.S. I Love You.

However, due to recent events, it is very likely these songs will once again come up for sale by the end of 2004.

By selling now, they'd make a nice downpayment on that $3mill bond.

You're right. MJ does own all of Paul's Beatle songs. McCartney DID buy the Carl Perkins catalog that includes some of the early Beatles songs &, ironically, Blue Suede Shoes. Also, McC bought the Buddy Holly catalog.
