And you think this why?
Because after 1 million sign-ups in 4 days there is some spam?
Or because 1 million sign-ups in 4 days is causing some capacity issues with the iTunes store?
Or because you see any opportunity to attack Apple for their success and take it mercilessly!!!
The issues mentioned in the article show no signs of problems with the iTunes App - they are things that you would change at the server.
Spam filtering is about adapting to the Spam - what spam filtering do you know of that stops all spam 100% of the time?
And a message that says that a request cannot be sent now due to an error at the store - again clearly indicates server side issues - and at 100 million new users this fast it is no wonder. It also explains why Apple is spending $1 billion on a data centre to host this - they are expecting a lot of users, clearly not expecting them in 4 days though.
Who would expect that many users - after all the bloggers around here keep declaring that nobody uses Apple - so maybe you should all stop whining about the no users that are having problems cause clearly they must not exist!!!
