Songs on computer version of iTunes no on iPhone iTunes app

I can search for a song/artist on my Mac iTunes store, but if I use the iTunes app on my iPhone, I can't find that song. I want to buy songs without having to hook up my phone.

Specifically, I was looking for The Story sung by Lacey Brown. I can't find that on my phone to purchase.

Any thoughts?

iPhone 3gs, iPhone OS 3.1.3

Do you have the W-Fi turned on or do you have a mobile plan that allows you to connect to the Internet?

MJ, I suspect he does. I tried reproducing the problem that he described, and I too could find the artist on iTunes on the computer, but not the iPhone. The iTunes store on the computer seems to go to some customized "American Idol" store page, which the iPhone app doesn't. I'd wager that it's a function of this customized store interface which may not be iPhone compatible. Very curious implementation...

Try it and let us know what you find.
