iTunes Match Starting to Roll Out Internationally - Spotted in UK, Europe, NZ, and Australia [Not Yet?]

[WeegieMac]

I just opened iTunes when I got home from work, and after clicking on the store I was asked to accept new terms and conditions, which mention iTunes Match ...

Yeah, I got that when trying to buy something this afternoon. iTunes match by Monday I hope!

I just had to accept new Terms in iTunes. I'm in Canada. Looks like iTunes match should be live any day now!

ok so its friday morning in New Zealand
an the option to join iTunes has ben taken own from the account info

The so calle bugs, are not a issue for me.
as more people join, these bugs wil be work out and fixed

people are forgetting that this is a new service, something that hasn't been tried before. by anyone.
there was always a chance that there would be bugs, no1 not even apple say it would be perfect from the word go.

people who go in, and expect it to be perfect an there won't be any issues at all. are a bit silly, yes Apple are expected to put a new system out that works perfect, but it won't happen. no matter how much people think it will.

every new update, hardware, service will have its teething issues, iOS.5, Mac OSX lion, iPhone 4S etc etc



i know that theres bugs, but i will be paying for the service, its good at the moment, and can only get better

So this is working for you in NZ then?

I'm quite tempted to sign up and get things rolling... Would you recommend this or should I wait?

 

[MasterHowl]

Just had to accept the new terms and conditions too... this is a good sign!

It's working

Just to let you know it's finally working in the UK. I purchased it this morning but didn't work until 5 mins ago!! Now it's "Gathering information..."

Just posting to say that I'm in the UK, and the iTunes store showed iTunes match on the right. Clicked it, subscribed, I was then asked to update iTunes to 10.5.2. Software updated, went back, no iTunes Match sidebar to be seen.
Clicked back on store, on iTunes Match again. Clicked subscribe again, put in my account info, then got a message saying I'd already subscribed (good). Then I was presented with the Add Computer Screen, and now its 90% through the matching process!
No funny international store workarounds required!

I see iTunes Match on the right hand side now (but I signed up earlier), when clicking it and saying add computer it errors with 'Please login again'.

 

[JonHimself]

Just signed into my iTunes account (in iTunes). iTunes Match showed up on the side, clicked it, seems to be working! (in Canada).

My library is now being scanned.

UPDATE: In Settings > Music on my iPhone (and iPad) I also see the option to turn iTunes Match on.

 

[PhantomZone]

I'm still getting 'iTunes match encountered an error' blah blah....

Pretty shambolic for Apple

When I click on iTunes match it comes up with Genius...anyone else?

 

[jaswah]

It's working now here in Australia. Couldn't see it on the store page itself, but under the Account page the option for 'Add Computer' is there. Mine is now scanning also.

Had you already purchased it during the premature roll out, or have you just subscribed?

I purchased it previously. I'm wondering people who did this are destined to have problems.

I subscribed at 21:13 today - and started the whole process then bombed out and now get the sign in error all the time now.

It's time like this I wish I didn't have so many songs... can't wait to try this out! I'm at 3k of 18k..

Works in Mexico

Subscribed yesterday and so far it seems to work. The songs that it could match were done very quickly, but uploading of the rest is extremely slow, maybe the server is overloaded.

Works on my ATV2 but have not tried an ios device yet.
