iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store
Apple unleashed a slew of new things today, and one of the most important things (to me) is the new interface for the iTunes Store, the iTunes WiFi Store. As you might expect, the iTunes WiFi Store lets you browse and purchase music directly from your iPod Touch or iPhone (over WiFi). All music purchased from the iTunes WiFi Store will sync back to your iTunes library (sweet!).Sadly, it seems this is limited to audio only, no video. Oh, and no word on if you can subscribe to podcasts via this interface (that would be insanely cool).
Apple announces iTunes WiFi Music Store
It looks like you'll be able to do plenty more than browse YouTube and Facebook with the new iPod touch's built-in WiFi, with Jobs also taking the opportunity today to announce the iTunes WiFi Music Store. It'll let you search for anything in the iTunes Store, preview it, and download it directly to your iPod touch. That then gets synced to your main iTunes library for safe-keeping and, if the download isn't quite done, it'll even finish things up for you. Those less certain of what they're looking for can also make use of the buttons for featured music and top tens. Unlike the ringtones for the iPhone, songs bought on the iTunes WiFi store cost the same as they do in the regular store and it'll be available in all 22 countries Apple operates in.
