iTunes Australia is finally here

by Chris Howard Oct 24, 2005

Well after many false starts the Australian iTunes Music Store has gone live this morning - ahead of the announcement due at lunch time in Sydney. Songs as expected are on mostly $1.69, with albums $16.99 (Australian dollars).

[Update]

And here’s the opener of the press release:

Apple today launched the revolutionary iTunes Music Store in Australia, giving Australian music fans the same innovative features, breakthrough pricing and seamless integration with iPod that have made iTunes the world’s most popular music jukebox and online music store. The iTunes Music Store is now available in 21 countries and features the most music of any digital music store in Australia with over one million songs from major and independent record labels and over 1,000 music videos. Priced at just $1.69 per song, $3.39 per video and with most albums at $16.99 including GST, the iTunes Music Store in Australia is the best way for Mac and PC users to legally discover, purchase and download music online.

  • What about New Zealand, we are the last English speaking country to have iTMS and from the comment from Apple it looks like we won’t be getting the store in New Zealand. Is it because we don’t allow nuclear powered and armed ships into our harbours?
