iTunes Australia Music Store
Sunday, September 11th, 2005
The latest rumour has it that Apple will be introducing iTunes in Australia on October 3. The holdup has been linked with Apple’s insistence that all songs be sold at the same price: ninety nine cents. Record labels want to charge more for new releases and less for older titles. Sony and Warner are yet to give the go ahead for iTunes. Maybe they’re hanging out for their own online music store.
Peter Kafka media editor for Forbes.com had an article on the situation back on Thursday September 8. Mac Rumours followed this up with a post the next day.
I won’t be holding my breath though. We had similar rumours relating to the store opening in April, complete with involvement of Russell Crowe.
