Why is Apple saying I do not have a iCloud ID?

I think when you say pay the bill it means you have a paid for itunes. Apparently iCloud is not a part of that. It is a separate program. I finally gave in and decided to try it..on my pc as I don't own any apple devices. I finally got a screen telling me to get an icloud password I must set up an icloud account on an apple device. I'm still waiting on someone to tell me if there is another way. If not I'm screwed as I don't own any, and can't afford to buy any. If you have an apple device, try setting up your icloud account through it...otherwise you will have to wait to see if there is another way. Oh, if you find one, please let me know, thanks.

Unfortunately I have found out that the only way to get an iCloud ID is to set one up on an Apple device that uses the Apple OS opperating system. If you don't own one, or can't afford one, then you are simply shut out of using the iCloud. Does it suck? Yes. Is there any solution other than buying an Apple device? No.
