iTunes: common questions
Is iTunes free to use?
Yes — iTunes is a free open data API. Free tier: Free — limits not published. Whether the free tier allows commercial use is unclear — check the provider docs.
Does iTunes need an API key?
No — iTunes needs no API key or signup. You can call it straight away; rate limits still apply (Unpublished).
Can I call iTunes from the browser?
Not directly — iTunes doesn't send browser-friendly CORS headers, so call it from a server or proxy instead. Copy the curl or Python snippet on this page to get started.
Is iTunes up right now?
As of our last scheduled check, iTunes is dead with 23.6% uptime over 90 days and a 421 ms median response. We re-probe it every sweep — the status badge and uptime chart above always show the latest.
