I'd never spank anybody 🙂
anyway, are your from the Netherlands?
And, our best export product is our music... (not the chocolate (went to Swiss), the French Fries are Belgian (want a recipy, I'll give it to you) and our beer, OK, our beer is another decent export product)

And I do not speak German, although I had some German at school, but I wouldn't be able to conduct a conversation in it. But I would probably understand what they would talk about since there are quite some similarities with Dutch, English, and French.

And what is Wienkle?

Did any other Aussies notice that Pete Murray is listed on the opening page of iTMS UK store. I think it's gonna happen guys.

The initial error message always appeared, but not like this - now Canadians et al. are not able to browse iTMS at all. Before, we would always get this error message and then still be able to proceed into iTMS to at least browse, preview, etc. without being able to buy.

I can still browse iTMS from Canada - does this mean no iTMS Canada tomorrow?
 
In Sweden I can now again browse the store without getting the loop. Also, the swedish band The Cardigans are available, and I dont think they´ve been in the store before (altough they are internationally succesful).
 
It would be cool if ALL of those countries appeared tomorrow. That's probably wishing for too much, but we'll see. (Japan? I thought the market barriers there sounded insurmountable any time soon.)

I'm starting to wonder if tomorrow might not have any iPod news except the U2 model. I was hoping to be able to buy a 60 GB iPod, but maybe that's not happening (yet). I can hope though 🙂
 
In regards to iTunes New Zealand the former head of Sony New Zealand was quoted in the Saturday/Monday newspaper.

And yes, Glading has nothing to hide, he does own an iPod and it's bursting with more than 400 albums. "I love iTunes and I love my iPod and I wish we had iTunes in New Zealand because I would be on it every day getting tunes."

iTunes is due to be available in New Zealand early next year. But Glading says the legitimate downloading model has taken far too long to come out.

"The record companies were slow to get the legitimate download model up and running. The irony is it took something like Apple [with iTunes] to pull it together."

.....


One thing's for sure, the introduction of iTunes next year will keep Glading and his trusty iPod busy and bopping.

It's going to happen. I'm in Canada. When I click on "buy song" now, instead of "not available in your country", it lets me get all the way to the end, but then my "country" is not listed. Tomorrow, I expect to wake up and our country will be selectable.

Edit: LOL: I found Corey Hart and the Toronto Symphony Orchestra on there. Must be happening. No Glass Tiger though.... too bad 😛

Almost everyone now appears to be able to browse the store again without getting the loop, so I don't think this changes things. Personally, I think Apple has made the necessary changes it needs to, and tomorrow, we'll be able to buy music on iTMS Canada!

Plus, the "buy now" option leads you through different screens than it used to, and that is definitely different - instead of just giving an "error" message, it lets you go all the way to the end before saying you can't buy a song.

Sorry, they've been there for ages - I've even bought one of their songs (thanks to a US billing address).
 
there is some australian stuff in the store today

killing heidi and bardot 😱 spiderbait

maybe these have been there a while though, i don't know
 
Its always been like that, so no indication of a Canadian iTMS tomorrow.

Also Canadian material like that has been on the us Store for quite a while now... I did a search for Toronto for no good reason a few months ago.

This text is there in the Swiss, Italian, Irish, Danish, Swedish, Austrian, Finnish, Spanish, Portuguese, Belgium and Japanese(!) store,

In the Japanese store there is indeed the iTunes icon in that page.
The text however only states iTunes is a very good digital Jukebox
and there's no mention of iTMS.

I'm not sure the iTunes icon was there or not some days ago.
 
Look at this pic I found on akamai, I guess the wait is finally over.

awesome, what were your methods?

BTW, obviously not photoshopped. Have we become that cynical?

Yes, we have. Besides, how often do you see Apple writing text! with! exclamation! marks! everywhere! ... as in the image purportedly taken from the Akamai servers.

I don't think there's really anything that obvious about it one way or the other. As for being cynical - as a Canadian iTunes-user-wannabe, I can say "Yes, definitely." There have been enough false rumours about an iTMS Canada that I have only a faint glimmer of hope in my heart -- I don't really believe that it'll be coming tomorrow, but I think I'll still be a little bit disappointed when it doesn't.
 
do u know if any asian countries are involved,As I am gettin the same message in Itunes as all the other countries listed on the main page.If it comes to Malaysia,hail the world
