Nate Lanxon of CNET UK mentioned on his blog that the entire Beatles back-catalogue may be the first to be offered in Apple Lossless format.

A much-publicized £200m deal between Apple and Paul McCartney to bring the back-catalogue exclusively to iTunes was rumored to have taken place (although it was denied by Sony/ATV Music Publishing). Lanxon believed that if it is offered on iTunes, nothing less than Apple Lossless format will do. This, in turn, will sell more iPods for Apple since only its players can play this lossless format (with the exception of Sonos and Cowon).

As always, take this rumor with a grain of salt. Talks of getting Beatles back-catalogue have been around for many years now. I guess, we will never know until it finally happens.
