The Beatles had all sorts of business plans in the late 60s. Apple Corps was
the umbrella organization. Under it was Apple Records for the musicians, and
then there was a group for film makers, and then another company for book
authors, and they even had their own retail store. IMO, it was a pretty
interesting chapter of the Beatles history, and it's worth reading into.
AFAIK, only Apple Records exists today.
