"the music store could not process your request, please try again later."

BA HA HA HA HA HA, what a loser!

Hehe, just kidding.

The service is new, they probably haven't ironed all the kinks out just yet.

Maybe you should just do as it says and try again later.

*Chuckle* Sorry, it slipped out...

I got (and getting) the same error. Good thing probably, because I think I might get addicted to this.

Well here it works.

Now I need to do an Applescript for an iMac... to shut down iTunes 4 after 12 seconds. Exactly, someone can get addicted. (Not me, and I don't have an iMac either so it'll not run on mine..).

I was having a similar problem when the service first was announced. I downloaded the updates just fine once they came available and have a 1-click account from my .mac, but I couldn't connect to the server, or kept getting bounced from it.
I went to sleep, woke up this morning and tried again. No problems whatsoever. Went through the couple of screens confirming my address and agreement, then hit the store running. That and to download 6 songs took about 10 minutes and I sampled a few along the way.
Now, once when I hit the home tab, I got a prompt saying it was for US shoppers only at this time (I'm a Yank, but working abroad), then I hit continue and it still worked fine. At least in my case, the bugs from the initial swarm of shoppers seemed to have died away.

I had a different problem, that the stupid thing wouldn't download my songs. If you go to the Advanced menu and click on Check for Purchased Music, it will pull them up again, but I was having to do this like 8 times for each song I had in the qeueue. Eventually it did get everything I had ordered (yes it keeps track if your mac has crashed...) but it was a pain.
I attribute it to network errors, everything else is cool.

here's an error: they made the icon green. limewire anyone? jk.

I thought that was the green-with-envy-look from Windoze folk.

But you're right, it does tend to jar the eye a bit compared to aqua and/or brushed metal. More so, since I've been using the milk theme.
