Odds and Ends: iTunes music store no longer available for browsing in some countries; Knowledge Base Updates

iTunes music store no longer available for browsing in some countries We've received word from a number of readers that the iTunes Music Store is no longer available for browsing in some countries that are awaiting the ability to purchase music from the store.

Keith Takayesu writes "Well, I have been anxiously awaiting the arrival of iTunes store Canada. I didn't have any problems browsing the store with the previous version of iTunes.

"Now, when I get the normal 'The iTunes Music Store is not available in your country yet.' page, I go to browse a store. However, now when I try to access any of these stores, I just get sent back to the "not available" page! Perhaps this has something to do with the impending opening of iTunes Canada, but it's pretty annoying when I can't even start to check out what songs I might want to get!"

Glen Hawkins confirms "I live in Australia and even though I cannot purchase i-Tunes Music I can usually peruse the site and watch the videos and make choices to buy songs locally. I hadn't checked for a while but when I do now I end up with a multiple flag choice of what store to enter and then when I try to, it loops back saying that you cannot purchase from this store but can browse songs and music."
