you'd have thought, that being appple, they would've sorted this before
they announced the service. Though it doesn't bother me really as i'll
not be using iCloud, I find it pretty stupid how companies (especially
big companies) release products and then start signing the appropriate
deals with companies.

Hi list,
I thought the UK members would find this information interesting about
iCloud.

Apple’s new iCloud service —announced during Steve Jobs’ WWDC
keynote on Monday
<http://www.bgr.com/2011/06/06/apple-icloud-coming-today-replaces-mobileme/>—
will not launch in the United Kingdom until at least the first
quarter of 2012. A representative from the Performing Right Society
(PRS), an association of songwriters, music publishers, and
composers in the United Kingdom told/The Telegraph/that negotiations
with Apple are still at a “very early stage.”
The licensing team at the PRS have started talks with Apple, but
are a long way off from any deals being signed … It is very much
the early stages of the negotiations and is similar to the
launch of iTunes – which began in the US and took a while to
roll out to other countries
iCloud will launch in tandem with iOS 5 in the United States this fall.
