Michael Jackson ‘This Is It’: Download from Apple iTunes

Both the Jackson Estate and Sony have confirmed that Michael Jackson’s new album, ‘This Is It’ will be available to purchase from the Apple iTunes store on October 27th.

As reported from Apple Insider, it is thought that a deal is being worked out to determine whether single tracks from his new album will be available to download individually, or if Apple will require customers to purchase the full album.

Whatever the outcome though, the news will surely please the legion of Jackson fans who previously thought that ‘This Is It’ wouldn’t be available on iTunes. The album will include remastered versions of classics such as ‘Beat It’ and ‘Thriller’, while the latest track also titled ‘This Is It’ will be included on the disc.
