Juno's Digital Copy causing headaches in Canada?

by Darren Murph, posted Apr 18th 2008 at 9:55AM

Apparently a number of Canadians who have purchased Juno in hopes of downloading a Digital Copy and hauling it around on the go are coming up empty handed. We're seeing reports of failed attempts to redeem the packaged code, resulting in error messages indicating that "This product is not available in the Canadian store." Initially, users were generally assuming the blame needed to be placed on Fox, but according to an e-mail reply from the Fox Digital Copy Support team, it indicated that "Apple [was] working" to fix the problem as quickly as possible. Any of you in the Great North dealing with the same issue? Have you seen this on more than just one occasion?

[Thanks, Nick]

I'm in Ottawa, and I actually thought my code might be bad, so I e-mailed Apple first, who blamed it on Fox and said the offer wasn't available in Canada.

I got a follow-up e-mail two days ago saying it was fixed, however. I haven't tried it again yet.
