iTunes 11.1 Download Released, iTunes Radio in Canada Trick Still Works
Apple has released iTunes 11.1 for download which will feature iTunes Radio for USA listeners, which you can download from Apple or via Software Update on your Mac.
However, the workaround to get iTunes Radio in Canada still works, confirmed by iPhoneinCanada reader Robert: just login with a US iTunes account and you’ll have access, as there does not seem to be geo restrictions on the music service (yet!).

I would do this but one only problem for iTunes Match users is that if your account is registered in canada you won’t have access to your music library through match while logged into USA account
things would be easier if multiple accounts can be logged in from a single device…
very lame that once again we Canadians have to wait for these types of services.. I have iTunes Match on my Canadian account.. not my US account.. very lame!
This worked for me – and unlike other commenters I don’t mind listening to the ad-based version for now because I don’t use iTunes Match. Thanks!
Yes lame that we have to wait, I blame the RIAA, ASCAP, and all the music lobby douchbags.
Why do you need your match library to listen to the radio exactly? Whatever songs you have downloaded in your local library will still be there, from what I can see, your library songs have little to do with iTunes Radio.
Pick a Genre and go, lame that if you stumble upon a song you like that you can’t buy it.
This classic BS by the Canadian music industry. It just too much of a pain to set up a US account and still have ads when I already have iTune match.
i makes sense why they didn’t release it with Canada, the contracts with the record labels are for US only, they are not allowed to stream music anywhere else then US, they must re negotiate a contract with every record label for which ever country they want to expand, unless they agree on world wide contract, i doubt it
Yup. It worked. Confirmed it here 🙂
Awesome!
Just changed my country, state, zip code and removed my credit card info (didnt match my “new” billing address”) And radio works for me!
any ideas on how to get it on your iphone. It seems to work fine on iTunes, but i can’t figure out how to get it on my phone.
Does a US iTunes account sign in work on your iPhone?
yeah, the sign in part works fine. used to do the same in the uk to get access to spotify.
This _almost_ worked but not quite. First I followed this site’s excellent
advice on setting up a US iTunes account with no credit card. So far so good.
After going back into iTunes using the US account, I got the Radio button and
selected a station. But when I tried to play it, I was greeted by this error
message “You are not authorized to access the requested resource” 🙁 I tried
it several times, several hours apart, always with the same result. Anybody
else had this happen? (Screenshot attached for your perusal.)
I got the same thing. Started working once I did authorize this computer. Hope this helps 🙂
Yes, that helped 🙂 Thank you Sissi.
Tried it and just my luck, it ddn’t work. The link just returned me to the library. Had my US iTunes account since 2005.
I live in Canada and had iTunes Radio show up in my music app for an entire day. I really enjoyed it but then poof, gone. Anyone know why this is happening?
Looks sporadic testing prior to the Canadian launch. We’re hearing multiple reports of it appearing on macs now
