Can't purchase? There is not enough memory available. There was an error in

I just started getting this error tonight from the itunes store. It works fine until I try to purchase a song and then I get this message:

"Could not purchase "song name". There is not enough memory available.
There was an error in the Itunes store. Please try again later."

I tried restarting computer, etc but that didn't help. I am using an older version of itunes (7.5.0.20?). Could this be the problem?
Does anyone know how to fix this or what is causing it?

Lor23 gave me the temp fix I went to the All Songs By This Artist list and my purchase and download worked fine. Since there are over 8000 posts to this thread from mac and pc users and all OS I'd say Apple knows of the glitch and is trying to fix it Hang tight it wil be fixed just don't do anything rash.
And a big thanks to Lor23

This getting beyond a joke - we're being made fools of - the problem has persisted for 4 days now, every internet forum is clogged with distressed, angry customers, yet Apple remains absolutely silent! Yet, and Apple knows this, they are able to get away with this spit in the face because of their virtual monopoly position.
I have managed to get the brilliant Turbosounds (see other Thread, Solution to the not enough memory) work-around to solve it on my computer, but it seems it only works for music, not visual content, but give it a try.

What the **** is going on?
