Why Can't I buy Led Zeppelin Music on iTunes?

Breaking News:Led Zeppelin will soon begin offering select songs on iTunes! Starting Nov. 12th, 2007 'Mothership' will become available on iTunes. This compilation of 12 songs includes Stairway To Heaven, Dazed and Confused, Whole lotta Love, and others personally selected by Robert Plant.
Look for them here first! I will have access to these songs as soon as they become available, so check back often!
Many older classic rock artists still own the digital rights to their music and refuse to release it.
This is consistent with Led Zeppelin's history as they released very few singles, instead preferring to sell whole LPs.
Their justification is that the songs weren't written to stand alone and thus shouldn't be listened to by themselves.
I tend to agree.

The Lyrics to Stairway to Heaven
What are they really saying?
Stairway to Heaven (As Recorded by Tiny Tim & Brave Combo)
(Page-Plant)
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for
Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a sign on the wall but she wants to be sure
And you know sometimes words have two meanings
In a tree by the brook there's a songbird who sings
Sometimes all of our thoughts are misgiven
Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a feeling I get when I look to the west
And my spirit is crying for leaving
In my thoughts I have seen rings of smoke through the trees
And the voices of those who stand looking
Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And it's whispered that soon, if we all call the tune
Then the piper will lead us to reason
And a new day will dawn for those who stand long
And the forest will echo with laughter
And it makes me wonder
If there's a bustle in your hedgerow
Don't be alarmed now
It's just a spring clean for the May Queen
Yes there are two paths you can go by
but in the long run
There's still time to change the road you're on
Your head is humming and it won't go in case you don't know
The piper's calling you to join him
Dear lady can't you hear the wind blow and did you know
Your stairway lies on the whispering wind
And as we wind on down the road
Our shadows taller than our soul
There walks a lady we all know
Who shines white light and wants to show
How everything still turns to gold
And if you listen very hard
The tune will come to you at last
When all are one and one is all
To be a rock and not to roll
Woe oh oh oh oh oh
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
There's a lady who's sure all that glitters is gold
And she's buying a stairway to heaven
And when she gets there she knows if the stores are closed
With a word she can get what she came for
And she's buying a stairway to heaven, uh uh uh.
