After the less than enthusiastic reception for the iWatch, more bad news for Apple. From Reuters:
- APPLE SAYS APP STORE, MAC APP STORE AND ITUNES STORE SERVICES UNAVAILABLE FOR ALL USERS
- APPLE SAYS CUSTOMERS MAY BE UNABLE TO MAKE PURCHASES FROM THE APP STORE, ITUNES STORE, IBOOKS STORE, OR MAC APP STORE
More details from TechRadar:
Apple's digital stores - the iTunes Store, App Store, iBooks Store and Mac App Store - are experiencing some pesky technical problems right now.
Apple has updated its service status page to reflect that "all users are affected" by the problem. It was also having issues with iCloud account sign-ins, which now seems to be fixed, but users are still experiencing problems with purchasing items on its stores.
So if you're having issues with any of these services, fear not, you're not alone. We'll update as we know more.
And the confirmation from Apple [5]:

One wonders if Apple forgot to "pay its NSA fees [7]" this month?
