iTunes Europe Tomorrow

MSN posts more confirmation that the iTunes Music Store is coming to Europe tomorrow (June 15th).

The announcement will be made on June 15, said sources familiar with the necessary licensing negotiations between Apple and music labels.


Apple has announced a music press event for tomorrow, and the European iTunes launch has been widely rumored.
Meanwhile, MacBidouille claims that Apple will host the iTunes Store in Luxemburg to minimize European taxes (3%) and that there will be 3 localized versions of the Music Store: UK, France, and Germany.

I wonder if Apple will tie-in a new iPod announcement with this one.

I's a bad thing to see an european ITMS without all the Europe countries and without a release forecast for the others.

VERY BAD !!!!

I shall also be there downloading my music. As will, hopefully, one of my recent converts from work who I gave a CD with itunes for Win XP on (he has dial-up). He says he stayed up til 2am and ripped his entire CD collection....high praise indeed. Just need to get him to flog his flawed Vaio tower and buy a dual 2.5 now....he already bought a 23" display for the damn Vaio for Chrissakes....what a waste.

I'll say it in advance,

Welcome to wide world of iTunes, Europe!

May I enjoy your European "hits" as you enjoy our American "hits" in this world wide store.

I'm curious. I assume that these localized versions of iTMS will carry the music solely of that country, but do you think it's possible for someone from the US to buy a German song, for instance? Or will iTMS encompass the entire collection? If the former is true, how will apple advertise their massive collection (ie "We have 2,000,000 songs around the world")?

As long I can buy music from Belgium it's ok. Hey, Luxemburg is next to us so... Otherwise I need to drive a little and go to an internet café :)
