WHAT ABOUT US?
WHAT ABOUT US?
Yes, the rest of the world!!!! Do, I need to mention another 175 countries. Why should applying for iTunes U services be discriminated based on country. It is simply insulting!!!! I took it with a pinch of insult in 2009 (explored possibilities), and hoped that eventually iTunes would open up their free services to Universities beyond those 21 countries, but until today (June 2010), nothing seem to have changed (please correct me, if I am wrong!).
But lets be positive! We are talking about iTunes U and the legend Steve Jobs here, so lets hope they will change for the better, and really carry out the democratization of expertise and learning beyond this little world of 21.
