Apple has announced iTunes Radio is now available to music fans in Australia. It’s a free Internet radio service featuring over 100 stations and a catalog of music from the iTunes Store.
Tune into iTunes Radio on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, Mac, PC or Apple TV, and you’ll have access to stations inspired by the music you already listen to, Featured Stations curated by Apple and genre-focused stations that are personalized just for you. iTunes Radio evolves based on the music you play and download, according to Apple. It also gives you access to exclusive “First Play” premieres from top selling artists, plus the ability to tag or buy anything you hear with just one click.
iTunes Radio is ad-supported and free for everyone. iTunes Match users get iTunes Radio ad-free, so instead of hearing the occasional ad on iTunes Radio, iTunes Match makes your listening completely ad-free. With iTunes Match, all your music— even songs you’ve imported from CDs — are stored in iCloud. iTunes Match costs AU$34.99 for a year.
