American Idol tab in Wi-Fi iTunes store
If you have recently used the iTunes Wi-Fi Music Store on the iPhone or iPod touch, then you may have noticed a new tab that Apple added. In the "Featured" category, you will find an "American Idol" tab beside "New Releases" and "Genres." Now you can get your American Idol fix any time you're around a Wi-Fi signal!
Thanks, shon.

This is the most ridiculous "feature" ever! I will bet anyone 10,000$ that this tab doesn't last more than a few updates.

I am also outside the US (and just as importantly do not have an account in the US store) -- currently running 1.1.3.
Seems to be limited to the American store. Somewhat silly, but if that's how they want to play then okay....
Mine doesn't show that tab, just "New Releases", "What's Hot", and "Genres"...
(Though I'm outside the US and rocking 1.1.2 after declining to update the Touch firmware for $20...)
I hope the people at Fox are paying dearly for this...

It really does have a lot of buzz around it. Does it deserve its own tab? Yeah, it does........on my iPhone? Nah, not really but, I see a ton of "other" crap I much rather less see. All in all, what's good for Apple is good for applefans.
Seacrest out!
I think i am going to be sick....
How does American Idol deserve its own tab?
