Interestingly, Apple has also extended its iTunes Match service in India, allowing users to re-download previously downloaded music (even music purchased & downloaded from sources other than iTunes) from iTunes, and store it in the cloud at a price of Rs 1200 per year (compared to the US Store price of $25 per year).
Although, Apple has not announced the names of record labels and studios it has tied-up with, the store features both Indian and International music from all major labels including
