iTunes Australia on October 3?

According to Forbes, Apple is preparing to launch its iTunes Music Store in Australia. The online music store should be launched in Australia as soon as on October the 3rd.

It looks like negociations between Apple and the music majors have been particularly difficult for this country. Sony and Warner's music might not be present in the Australian music store.

It has been reported many times during the year that Apple was about to launch its Australian music store, however Australians are still waitng for it.
