No iTMS Australia

Expectations were high that Apple planned to launch the Australian iTunes Music Store at a special Apple event held shortly after Steve's Jobs's keynote speech. Apple Australia introduced the new iPod Shuffle, but gave
not a word about the Australian iTMS.

Australia has a different copyright system than the one in place in the US, which is said to be the reason for the hold up down under. iTunes likely won't come to the Australian market until all partners are on board and the final deals are in place.

I'm sure Aussies are hopping mad that those lucky Luxembourgians got the goods before they did. :) Any Australian readers out there want to give word on the digital download market there?
