itunes store issue - I can not sample songs (before purchase) that came out after July 2023. I'm on a new macbook pro - Ventura / Version 13.0. It lets me purchase but not sample. I keep seeing this issue on forums so it's definitely a problem with iTunes Store. They need to fix this. ASAP. I would buy more music if I could sample the newer songs.

I have exactly the same issue with the new Birdy album. I have purchased the 1st track and it downloads and plays perfectly but even in your library when clicking "show complete album" it`s the same issue. Funny how it doesn't prevent them taking your money.

I have this problem too. Tried to sample the tracks on the now Birdy album Portraits but they do not play. Her older songs do but the new ones.

My connection is fine so no problems with my end.
