  It's covered by standard copyright laws, it's certainly not abandoned. My guess would be the rights are controlled by some combination of EMI Records, Yoko Ono, Paul McCartney, Sony Music and Micheal Jackson. Downloading it is just as illegal as downloading any other song.

  I was looking at some Beatles site somewhere and it said the UK version of the Beatles Christmas Album was called "From Then To You" and had a reworked cover from the 1st flexi-disc. (which I have an image of). Your thing looks very official though...where did you get your info? --I wonder if what I have is done by "Lyntone" (the makers of the flexi's)?

  The depicted cover in your blog is a replica of the danish vinyl LP Beatles Hottest Hits from 1966, reworked.

  I've been looking for a place to do a review or blog of this. Because it's not available the same way as the white album, basically, I had to Google around, and found this.
  I first heard this on US vinyl in 1993. It was not what anyone expects in a Christmas album. I now listen to it a few times a year around this time.
  I later found a bootleg CD-R with the outtakes and all (this is before I got broadband). There are several around. Now you can find free downloads if you look hard enough. Apple don't seem to wanna release it themselves. Besides, the Beatles inadvertently started the whole pirate market.
  For starters, this is not your grandparents' Christmas album! There aren't covers of whole carols or standards. It starts out with messages to the fan club members, then evolves into comedy sketches (akin to their friends at Monty Python).
  In the 1966 and 1967 pieces, you have to listen carefully to tell whose voice it is. It's usually John Lennon, who had the inkling for comedy. By 1968, it was the beginning of the end. They each did their own contributions. The two Lennon poems were later in his posthumous book "Skywriting by Word of Mouth". In 1969, none other than Yoko appears!
  My CD-R copy also has Macca's "Wonderful Christmastime" and outtakes of "Happy Xmas (War is Over!)" from John & Yoko. Some have George Harrison's "Ding Dong Ding Dong" and maybe tracks from Ringo Starr's "If I Were Santa Claus".
  This is a must for diehard fans.
