I wrote to them about this problem, explaining all the steps I went through to get to the point where it wouldn't read the page of selections. At the time, I had not devised the work around I will outline here. They wrote back and said it wasn't a problem, I have yet to write back and assure them it is a problem, hoping the problem is fixed in IOS 7.
In the Meantime, I have come up with a workaround. It is somewhat cumbersome, but it gets the job done. In my case, when I first access ITunes, it reads the initial page, with what I call a miscellaneous selection of music, movies, etc, depending on what tab I have selected. When I tap the genre button, and select a genre, the problem begins. It will read the featured, charts, and history buttons, but none of the selections. At this point, exit ITunes with the home button, remove ITunes from the app switcher. , restart ITunes. The selections in the genre you selected then will be read. If you wish to change the genre, you have to go through the same process to get it to read. If you wish to get back to the initial miscellaneous page, tap the genre button, but do not select a genre. Exit, remove from the app switcher, and restart, and the miscellaneous page is there. I told you it is cumbersome, but it gets the job done. And it proves that it is a VoiceOver problem, not that the ITunes store is not displaying the selections.

I can get to the part where I click the genre that I'm interested in, but, no content appears? Anyone else experienced? thanks.
