Ironically, when you're looking at a "recently played" track listing on
SomaFM, like so:

    http://www.somafm.com/recent/?groovesalad

the links to buy on Amazon show up fine, but the links to buy on iTunes
Music Store are invisible and non-functional (there should be a column of
them under the "Buy Track" column header). Works fine in Safari. I'm
running Camino 2005102404 (1.0a1+) on 10.4.3.

This is due to ad-blocking. The problem is that the iTunes buttons are links to a very common ad-server; i.e., 99% of the time the images associated with those links would be banner ads. In this case, however, the site is using that ad-server to count clicks or referrals or something and the ad-server is then redirecting you to iTMS (the site is not using the the standard iTMS links).

Because it's a very common ad-server involved, and because they aren't the standard iTMS links (those don't get blocked), I imagine we won't change the ad-blocking rules. You can disable ad-blocking in the prefs temporarily, reload the page, and see the buttons.
