Beats Electronics Acquisition May Be Delayed - Rumor

Yesterday I told you that the deal between Apple and Beats Electronics was nearly signed. Well, as it turns out, I was wrong. According to the new report from Billboard, which appeared on the Internet today, there're several reasons for the negotiations to go on.

The guys from Cupertino haven't yet found a place at the company for Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine. This is probably the main reason why the deal hasn't been finalized.

As noted by 9to5Mac,

A few of these potential hold-ups include issues determining Beats’ valuation and issues with finding a place for Dr. Dre and Jimmy Iovine to fit into Apple’s corporate structure. According to one of Billboard’sз sources, Apple’s executives were “freaked out” by the video that surfaced a few weeks ago of Dr. Dre and Tyrese Gibson (accidentally) confirmed that a deal was in the works.

I honestly don't know what to think about the deal between Apple and Beats. Some sources say it will be finalized soon, the other deny such rumors. Let's wait to see who's right.
