The store is taking ages to load for me in the UK -- anyone else having problems accessing? I wonder if it's down.
Super slow for me too on the West Coast of the US. Must be all the MR members wondering where's the refresh?

I spoke too soon - it has loaded, but it is achingly slow. Could be something, could be nothing. I've never experienced this much lag, though.

I just checked...super super slow for me as well. The bar that says accessing music store was there for much longer than usual.

It has been taking up to 30 seconds to load for me today. Still no new content.

I take that back. It's taking up to 1 minute and 20 seconds to load the front page. All the links after that load normal.

Is this odd? Why would the store be slow, even if they are adding things and/or releasing a new version?

Nope... running as usual in this part of London. An average of 2-3 seconds per page...
If you quit and go back in, though, what happens...? if I navigate around, the pages load pretty instantly - but accessing the store first time is really slow.

When I went back in post installing 10.4.7, it was still fine.

But the 10.4.7 update sure did stop the iTunes speculation...:rolleyes:

Yeah, this discussion kind of ground to a halt. Much shinier penny over there.
 
iTMS Home page is updated. Nothing too obvious new.

EDIT: iTunes Essentials by year from 1960-2005 is the only visible sign.

False alarm. <sigh> :eek:

Wonder why it took them so long? Seems like a nice update anyways.

They had to update all their computers to 10.4.7 before they let it out ;)
 
Remember all the chatter about the "Made By iTunes" ?

This is from The New Music Tuesday email :

"With their psychedelic brand of heavy metal and one-two punch of melody and riffs, Wolfmother make for a riveting live show. The combustible set that we've captured with Live From Vegas at the Palms shows the band powering through six tracks (including "Woman" and "Love Train") from their self-titled debut album. iTunes filmed the entire performance at the Palms and also chatted with the Australian rockers beforehand to see how their growing success is affecting them. Get the live show and interview footage as a single download, exclusively on iTunes."

... Made By iTunes
It was Made in iTunes, wasn't it?

Plus, my emails are now titled New Music Weekly... can't quite pinpoint when that changed ... I suppose it lets them off the hook if they miss the update on Tuesday. Or, if they make it in time for the US, but not the rest of the world - like this week (I received my email this morning - Wednesday - at 0146 GMT)

If only the email actually said "Made By iTunes"...

Mine just had a link following this paragraph, inviting me to "Check It Out".
