Apple Music Store Coming to Europe & iTunes in China

Posted by Hemos on from the launching-into-the-new-world dept.

frankie writes "As reported everywhere, Apple is holding a press conference in London on Tuesday June 15. The entirely un-subtle official sound bite is "the biggest story in music is about to get even bigger", not what we've come to expect from Lord Steve." Or read through the Reuters report. In other news, it appears that Apple has struck a deal with China's second larger computer manufacturer to preinstall iTunes.

  3. .ogg iTunes, .wav etc by xiando · · Score: 0, Offtopic

    Personally I'd rather have my audio in .ogg or .mp3 format instead of iTunes, .wmv or any other closed not-all-round supported format. I want to be able to use my audio anywhere, on any device. I do not want to be restriced to using any special not-open-source software or device. .ogg audio ownez iTunes any day of the week.
