If you have 500 vinyl records, you get an amazing record player, amp, and speakers, and sit down and listen to some good quality music, and consider yourself lucky for not having to deal with crappy CD quality albums.
I got in! 
I'm really curious how this works, I'm thinking that I can have all my lossless tracks on my Mac, and then have the 256 kbs versions on my iPhone through iCloud without me having to make two versions of each song and what not. I think this is great. $25 a year doesn't sound too bad either. Let's see if that's how it works though.

I had been refreshing for around 4 hours (Not consistently). I don't know if it helped, but I had signed into the iCloud.com page about 5 minutes before it finally let me in.
Did NOT work for me.... code accepted but then nothing, it never left the redeem page. Now my account has been credited with 25 buck but I can't use them to pay :-(

so how are you dudes getting into the match signup process? Just continually refreshing or is there some trick? Just wondering if stuff is closed or if I should keep trying.
I just opened up iTunes, clicked the Sign Up button, entered my password and that's it. It didn't even tell me anything about it being closed or an error. Nothing, I guess I was lucky.
Finally made it in 8:44PM EST after hours of cmd+r and closing and reopening iTunes. Keep up the hope
still getting a "full" error message
Mine did until I shutdown iTunes and reopened.

I went to purchase, redeem code, entered successfully but still asked for valid credit card on file. Which i don't have.
How did others pay by gift card? Is there a way round it?
