Apple iTunes Store Waiting
Despite Peter Kafka’s prediction that the iTunes Store would open in Australia on October 3, nothing has been rolled out. It’s a bit like the second coming of Jesus. Lots of people have theories about what will happen and when it will happen. But in reality, we could be waiting a long time before we see the action.
In the meantime, we have to find alternatives. We can look through the American iTunes store but we can’t buy. We can’t even download free files downunder.
Maybe Australia has to revise its copyright laws before we get iTunes Store. After all, it’s still illegal to videotape anything off the television, let alone copy music from a CD we own to an mp3 player.
In the meantime Apple Australia has nothing to say on the subject. See my earlier post on September 11.
