Cheers, Glen Low The penny drops! I forgot about the Canadian store, which is supposed to be unveiled this week. I figure things will be back to normal in the next few days! Seeya Rod! Ps Anybody noticed that Myer Megamart are now selling Macs (along with iPods)? Not sure if it is just laptops, as that was all they had in their ad. Good to see another reseller back on board!

Seems I have the same problem with 4.6. I guess Apple have changed something over the weekend, to make sure people in other countries go to the correct store. I bet I get another iTunes email this week too, telling me what the latest tracks are ;-) Seeya Rod!

Same problem in 4.6 and 4.7 Duncan Does anyone know if you can convert music from bigpondmusic.com (WMA format) into MP3s? Telstra claim 500,000 songs, and from what I have seen they have a decent collection (depending on your taste of course!). If Telstra have beaten Apple Australia to the punch with licensing music available in Australia, maybe the iTunes Music Store is going to be another iPhoto here? I hope bigpondmusic.com is not our only alternative. The itunes store is so much better! Seeya Rod!
Re: iTunes Music Store - Can't Browse
I had the same result when I tried accessing iTunes Store with latest version of iTunes. I kept choosing US and kept getting the error message. I then hit the browse button (looks a bit like an eye) in the top right corner of the window and I was then able to browse the store. All the best Greg Sharp

All the best Greg Sharp Just be aware that the above method doesn't let you look at all the cool stuff on the store. Just a listing format that looks like the Finder :-( It used to be a great way to see the new videos and listen to a grab of new tracks. And I actually liked reading the Celebrity playlists and what their thoughts are on each song! sigh Seeya Rod!

Bigpond *still* don't support the Mac, even though WMP 9 has been out for ages on the mac :-( Not that I condone it (I can't stress that point any harder!), but I can see why people just fire up apps like Poisoned and sponge away. Older albums go out of print and you are knackered. Can't buy it online, can't buy it in a store. Oh well, just keep waiting! Seeya Rod!

WiMP 9 for Mac only supports a much older version of the Digital Restriction Management software that the record labels use to price-fix and generally screw over their customers. Telstra only use a much newer version of this bludgeon device and it is not supported in WiMP 9 for Mac. So although you can't blame Telstra for this one... you can still blame Microsoft, and that makes me feel better. - Matt
