UK iTunes Music store IS NOW LIVE

I'm hoping the Dance music section improves too. It's all a bit limited at the moment.

But like everyone says, with a little time.....

DILATED when I get my alubook on friday I am gonna check this out
perfect timing

[CreativeEye]

already the lists of 'people who bought this also bought'

i think it'll be a couple of weeks and the lists will be nice and full and the store will be running at full pelt.

everyone i know has been buying tracks all day - i've already been sent a gift voucher by a friend!

good karma indeed!

Does anyone know how regularly the back-catalogue will be updated? What was the situation with the American store? I haven't found a great deal I'd like to purchase just yet, there's no Orbital, no Divine Comedy & no Jacquline Du Pre... I guess these things will come later - hopefully. Also, what's the deal with there only being a couple of tracks from an album? Will the rest follow? Just realised there's a few Orbital tracks on the US store so I have my fingers crossed for an appearance here on the UKiTMS. Still, glad it's here. It's been on the news all day.

Hmmn, limited selection but i was committed to buying something on the first day.
Particularly frustrating being the browse section, where far too many artists are listed for which there are no tracks. This particularly affects me since my tastes run more to independent labels than large ones. In Particular, i'd love to see dance labels release the tracks they previously only put out on vinyl, since it would stop me being so jealous of my DJ friends.

Miraculously, i found a Nuspirit Helsinki album on my second look round, hardly mainstream but i'm not complaining. As others said, the choice should grow over the next few weeks, but i hope the pay as much attention to signing up dance/electronic labels as they do rock labels.

Well, I've bought a couple of albums (Modest Mouse, The Cure and R.E.M.) and now I have an iTMS newbie question:

Is there any way to make a sort of 'Wish List', or 'To Buy' list? When browsing from work and I come across things I'd like to buy when I get home, or consider for a later purchase, I'd like an easy way to record this - does one exist?

I use the iTunes Preferences->Store->Buy Using Shopping Cart. This is the closest thing I can think of. It has the added bonus of making me think before I buy.
