One of the questions that we did before the keynote on Monday was whether Apple would think limit the iCloud service to the US market at least at the beginning, or if would at least begin it in closed beta. The latter has not fulfilled but first Yes goes way to do so, i.e., iCloud, unless the paragraph musical of this service, will begin in United States this autumn to be extended to other countries little by little, we underline: gradually.
Just know through the daily British the telegraph that the record labels of the Anglo-Saxon Islands are still at an early stage of negotiation. And it is very difficult to reach an agreement before that they have been able to observe how the launch of iCloud has affected sales of the record us.
In the words of an Executive of a record label of the United Kingdom that he wanted to remain anonymous:
Tentative talks have begun between Apple and the stamps in the United Kingdom. However, the negotiations are in an initial state and is not expected to see the music service in the cloud on this side of the pond until 2012.
In other words, that I take see iTunes in the Cloud if we do not live in the country of residence of the Apple company. Something that might already be expected, but that now gets quite ugly due to the so late that it has been in this leak. Especially if we have one thing in mind: the UK market has been always the first to taste the innovations of Cupertino.
For instance lets talk about a music service from the same company, iTunes Store, which began in October 2003 in United States and in March (half a year later) was already in the Islands. A year was slow to reach Spain and three to reach the Hispanic market. So that we can already expect because the clouds will take to bring musical rain outside USA.
Luckily I service Apple iCloud offers much more than this synchronization of songs through different devices from a single user, benefits which are much easier to implement because they do not collide with the interests of the companies in each country.
