Digital Home Thoughts: Apple Planning UK Launch of iTunes Next Week?

"Apple has invited select members of the press and other VIPs to a special event in London on June 15th. The invitation is emblazoned with Apple's familiar silhouetted iPod dancers on colored backgrounds and says, "The biggest story in music is about to get even bigger." The invitation-only event is scheduled to take place at Old Billingsgate Market in London, England on June 15, 2004 at 11:00AM."

Better late than never, I guess. While Apple remained US based, its competitors (namely Napster and Sony) have all launched services in the UK. It will be interesting to see if Apple can repeat the success it has had here the US.
