The way I see things, countries like Canada and even India are lower on the totem pole compared to the US. We didn't have iTunes Radio until Apple Music, we still don't have Apple Pay which is one of the reasons why I'm not jumping for joy about the iPhone 6 series, and now we don't get Apple

Dear friends, On 16th of Sept. IOS 9 got launched and one of the biggest features that was being touted was the News app. I am sad to report that this app (which should not cost anything extra to Apple or have any other legal issues) is not available in India. I was looking forward to it. I

Hi Ketan, You are not alone, the News app isn’t even available in Canada and we are right next door to The mighty United States of Apple. Furthermore, Apple for some reason which of course can’t have anything at all to do with money, decided that Canadian carriers should charge their

The benefits of the news app can be obtained through an RSS app like Lire. iTunes Radio had an algorithm inferior to that of Pandora. with Apple Music, the selection is inferior to that of Spotify. Apple Music is available in 100 countries though. Kelly On 9/19/15, Shawn Krasniuk
