iTunes Expands to India, Russia, 54 Other Countries

The iTunes store has opened up in Russia and a slew of other countries that were previously left off its coverage map. The 56-country expansion nearly doubles the number of countries in which iTunes is now available. Turkey, India and South Africa were also part of the launch, which Apple says will feature local and international music targeted at specific audiences. Russia may be one of the greatest challenges to Apple's music sector. Russia not only boasts a handful of legitimate downloading services, but is also one of the world's hotbeds for piracy.
