Okay.. as usual, I check out those non-US iTMS for other artists and contents. But it suddenly doesn't allow me to do so.. even I sign off. Looks like Apple locks users and prevent them to check out other stores.

Bummer..

The North American music industry probably doesn't want you to know how much their music sucks relative to the rest of the world.

I can still get into the US store okay. Guess it's just a US conspiracy.

Mine works fine. I don't have to sign off or anything. Must just be you. By the way, the hip-hop/rap section for France sounds like the 80's. That ****'s terrible.

I've heard sucky music throughout the world.

Japan especially. They LOVE American crap music. They are usually behind 10 years though.

Note, I'm not saying North American music sucks, I'm saying North American music industry music sucks.

Britian used to have a lot of great bands and interesting music, but when i look at the bbc network nowadays, they all are the same hip hop, teenage dance craps from the u.s. Even their own radio stations don't put up british music anymore.

to each his own on what kind of music you like, but the fact that you like hilary duff and hate rap music is really funny to me.

Kenneth, if you're not 16 years old, I’m going to start worrying about this obsession of yours...

As for the iTMS store thing, I flip back and forth checking out what's available in the other stores no problem.

okay... music is for everyone without age limit, right?

I still hope that iTMS gets Radiohead.. even tho I already owned all their albums. The MSN music store stole the thunder.

That's really weird.. I set up an iMac today and installed Panther from CDs... after all the necessary updates.. I opened up iTunes 4.6 and went straight to iTMS.. still it didn't allow me to visit 3 other stores.. I was on guest mode... not signed in.

May be those 3 other stores just don't like me....
