Our iTunes store
November 17, 2008 by Amed Adel
سوق منطقة الخليج و الشرق الاوسط و اعد الا انة مازال غير مستقر و ضعيف بعض الشيء مقارنة باسواق اخرى اذ اننى لن استطع العثور على اي اجابات منطقية لاطلاق ايفون فى مصر بدون خاصية (جي بي اس) و بدون وجود احد متاجر ايتيونز مما يعني تحديد المتعة التى ينبغى ان يشعر بها مستخدم ايفون. من اهم الامور التى اشعر بها اثناء استخدام ايبود او ايفون الشعور بالمتعة و السعادة لاننى و ببساطة اعيش و استمتع بالتجربة في حد ذاتها.
علي الجانب الاخر علمنا من مصادر متعددة و موثوق بها ان ايفون سوف ستم اطلاقة قريباً في منطقة الامارات و العديد من دول المنطقة و لكن بدون متجر ايتيونز! لا احد يدرى متي سوف نحصل علي متجر ايتوينز خاصة بمنطقتنا؟
The GCC and Middle East market is promising but it is not stable and strong enough like other regions. I could not find any logic explanations for releasing the iPhone 3G in Egypt by both main carriers without GPS functions, and iTunes store. It is limitation to the users experience. One of the best feelings I enjoy while using my iPod or iPhone is the joy and the happiness, I simply live and enjoy the experience therefore we do need our iTunes.
On the other hand we are expecting - according to different trusted sources- that the iPhone might be released soon in UAE, and I believe other countries will be followed but still without iTunes app store, no one knows why? and no one is able to tell us when will get our iTunes App store?
Very good points Amed. We know there are examples of online music offerings making it to our part of the world, so why not iTunes? If Apple could bring the music from Lebanon and the movies from India to a Middle East iTunes store, don’t you think that’d be a success?
let them make it arabic first then we wil think about Itunes,
I believe you right Hussen, we need more attention to Arabic and its applications. For sorry the only thing I can do is writing but we should not give up easily.
UAE has its own ITunes app store.
Ive used a couple of times too.
