Itunes Store Font Display

Since upgrading to v. 9, the artist name is in a illegible font on the main page. On other pages various parts are in the same gibberish. Did I get a bad font install during the installation process?

I have this same issue, but only in the iTunes store, Was working just fine when I did my upgrade it seemed like everything was okay until I connected to the iTunes store and saw the gibberish... checked language settings for both thee PC and iTunes too and they were english. So what is happening here? Websites look fine, just in iTunes is there this problem.

I think this is a font substitution problem, and the same font appears in safari when i visit wikipedia for example. This has happened to me in the itunes update and is driving me nuts. I have searched through my fonts to try and identify and delete the font but cannot find it. If anyone can identify the font in this screen-grab I would really appreciate it.

Following this thread with interest as since updating to iTunes 9.0.0.70, the artist names and section headers in the iTunes store now look like this - http://www.stevenforbes.com/itunes.jpg.

Deleting fonts isn't a viable solution for a problem that is exclusive to iTunes 9. Performing a system restore to a date prior to the iTunes update would also be inconvenient to say the least.

I buy a fair amount from the iTunes store but won't be until this gets sorted by Apple, perhaps an update will be released shortly containing the fix.
