Following last night's premature access to iTunes Match some users in international markets were able to achieve through their iTunes Store account pages, the service now appears to officially be going live in several countries.

MacRumors readers in a number of countries have been reporting over the past few hours that they are being presented with updated terms and conditions for the iTunes Store mentioning iTunes Match. And now prominent links to iTunes Match have appeared on the front page of the iTunes Store in at least Canada, Ireland, Mexico and the United Kingdom.

Users in those countries are reporting successful sign-ups for the service, and we're waiting to hear confirmation on whether it is indeed fully functional at this time.

Update: We're also receiving reports of iTunes Match links going live on iTunes Stores in Australia, France, New Zealand, and Spain.

Update 2: Users are reporting that the iTunes Match does appear to be working in the new countries, with subscribers' libraries being matched.

I have paid for iTunes Match and accepted the new terms, but I keep getting the above error message. Anyone in the UK getting any joy with this?

In the UK and subscribed successfully. However, when I try and add my iMac to iTunes match, it gives me an error and tells me to log in again. I was able to add my MacBook Pro and a Windows 7 machine, so don't know what's wrong with my iMac?

Was anyone in Canada able to actually purchase iTunes match? I keep on getting an error even though it is officially available.

That seems a common problem (me included) for UK subscribers.

Wonder how this will work with all my old BBC podcasts that are over an hour long?

I will feel guilty taking up that space in the cloud! ha
