Apple has announced that it has launched four new iTunes Music Stores in Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Switzerland featuring songs from all four music companies and over 1,000 independent record labels. Since its launch two years ago, the iTunes Music Store has stores in 19 countries and more than 400m songs purchased and downloaded worldwide.

In conjunction with the launch in Switzerland, Apple and UBS have also announced a promotion to give every Swiss citizen a free song on the iTunes Music Store as part of their new "UBS Generation" and "UBS Campus" packages. Song cards are being offered by UBS for music downloads in all of their branches and these cards can be used instead of a credit card to purchase tracks from the iTunes Music Store.

Every store offers Mac and PC users features such as iMix, Party Shuffle, audiobooks, the ability to create and print jewel case inserts and automatic WMA to AAC conversion. All stores also offer users the ability to play songs on up to five personal computers, burn a single song onto CDs an unlimited number of times, burn the same playlist up to seven times and listen to music on an unlimited number of iPods.

iTunes for Mac and Windows includes the iTunes Music Store and is available as a free download from http://www.apple.com/uk/itunes.> ((Comments on this story may be sent to info@m2.com))
