Good find. It looks legal to me too.

Apparently NRK (Norway's national broadcasting service) and TONO, the group that holds the music distribution rights in the country, has given the NRK permission to host music-focused programming as podcasts in MP3 format, provided the copyrighted music comprises less than 70 percent of the podcast.

The NRK's agreement with TONO stipulates that it can post any music-free podcasts indefinitely. If the podcast contains less than 70 percent music, it can be posted for up to four weeks. Anything with over 70 percent music is apparently off-limits.

It looks like the Beatles' podcasts are time limited, so if you want them, grab em now.

Just checked this website and was greeted with the following announcement:

Our Daily Beatles podcast stopped

Due to terms still being under negotiation, our own lawyers have advised us to pull back the podcasts containing The Beatles music.

This not because the signed deal stops us from doing it, but because we don't want to make our ongoing negotioations stuck.

We still have some clauses to negotiate, both with TONO, IFPI and FONO, that might open for even better podcast-services from NRK in the future.

NRK will still continue to podcast programs containing less than 70 percent music.
