iTunes Match US-Only For Launch

You know how excited you got by the prospect of having Apple match your entire torrented collection of Styx in the iCloud service using iTunes Match? Forget it. Turns out the service is only going to launch for US customers.

If you’re really desparate to try the service, you can always just set up a US iTunes account and go from there, but otherwise you’ll have to suffer the inevitable wait that comes with Apple working out deals with local record companies to launch the service here (probably at an inflated annual cost, too).
