Q: How do I use iTunes Without a Credit Card?
Before you link me to it (look I can do it myself), I've already read article HT2534 and it's outdated. There is no way to select none. I also created a brand new account and there was no option for 'none' there, either. Image:
So how do I create an account without a credit card or Paypal account? I'm not old enough to get either. Right now I'm locked out of iTunes.
Should I try phone support? I'll probably have to pay them $40 just for them to fix their own mistake.
iTouch 2nd Gen, iOS 4.2

OK so I ended up calling Apple. Luckily, my rep, Kevin, helped me without making me cough up for their own mistake.
That was nice of him. Still crappy policy, Apple.
The solution:
Go to the iTunes store w/out signing in.
Find some free (or paid, if you want it) app MADE BY APPLE (THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT THING). He recommended iBooks b/c it's free.
Download the app (Click "Free").
Click Create New Account in the dialog box that pops up.
Go through the forms until you get to Payment options.
The "none" option should be there.
Done. You need to start with an app that is MADE BY APPLE.
