iTunes Radio blocked !?

Some kind of firewall or similar blocking agent is behind this, p'bly (or maybe your iTunes app swallowed a stoopid pill). What should happen is that iTunes connects to pri.kts-af.net, which then asks iTunes for a login, which iTunes then sends. Once everyone's been introduced, iTunes sends in your requests (lists, streams, etc.) and gets the results back in xml files.

Sounds like something is preventing your iTunes from talking to pri.kts-af.net -- could be a software or hardware firewall, could be a Hosts file on your PC or on a router, or some other nefarious productivity-enhancer ;-) Or, your iTunes might be a little bit hosed (but I would suspect something upstream of iTunes).

AFAIK, iTunes radio can be blocked at "pri.kts-af.net" and "tunes.apple.com.akadns.net" and some-IP-address-I-don't-have-written-down. Google can p'bly provide details...
