ATV2 Not Playing Podcasts

Alright guys, I've tried accessing CNET and CNN podcasts and am getting the message "The iTunes store is currently unavailable. Try again later".

I'm guessing it's a server side upgrade they are doing. This is a new message I started getting today.

I called Support and used spiderfrommars case id. They used an appe tv to replicate the problem I described and got the same result. . It is a known issue apparently now. Has nothing to do with remotes as others have stated. The rep said to wait for it to fix itself, or for the iOS update coming next week.

In short, just chill and don't waste your time doing a restore

It wouldn't be server related, maybe a software bug

Oddly enough, the Apple Keynote plays perfectly. The AppleCare rep mentioned that to me as well. Let's just hope the problem resolves itself BEFORE the iOS 4.3 update on the 11th. I need my TRS.

If anyone does call AppleCare, be sure to use spiderfrommars' case ID#207712418
...squeaky wheel and all that.

It seems to be working again now. I haven't tested it on all podcasts affected, but so far it worked with a TWiT and a Revision3 podcast right now.

Yep, Looks like everything is back to normal. Tried Revision3, CNET, and TWiT podcasts. All systems go.

Not back to normal for me. Twit won play.
