Apple's iTunes Music Store put classical music composer George Frideric Handel in the same category as 2 Live Crew, Eminem and Marilyn Manson -- the "explicit" category. Yep, Handel's famous "Messiah," written some 242 years before Tipper Gore tangled with Twisted Sister over explicit lyrics, came with a parental warning. Apple got a grip and yanked the red-warning label a few hours after it put Handel's masterpiece on the virtual shelf, saying a technical glitch was to blame.
