searching iTunes store? How....

In the Music app menu bar, choose Music > Settings or Preferences > General and insure Show iTunes Store is selected.

Then click in the search box at the top of the left sidebar and then click the iTunes Store option at the top right of the main window as shown in the example in Buy music from the iTunes Store - Apple Support

If the 3 options don't appear at the top right of the main window after doing the above, 2 things to try:

1) If the View menu in the menu bar contains "Hide Playing Next" or "Hide Lyrics" then click that item so that it changes to "Show Playing Next" or "Show Lyrics."

2) If there is a very small < at the top left of the main window (to the right of the sidebar search box), click it one or more times until there is no < there.

I can see the option to see the apple store. I cannot search the apple store. So all I can possibly purchase is what they show me (top songs etc).

Is the option that you see the one that I have added the red arrow to in the excerpt below from Buy music from the iTunes Store - Apple Support ? If so, what happens when you enter a search in the search box at the top of the left sidebar and click where the red arrow is pointing?

Running Ventura here and None Of This Is Correct. Are the designers at Apple really this clueless? Y'know what. instead of jumping through their hoops, I'll just buy my music elsewhere from now on.
