At the Google IO Keynote address Google announced the new features being added to the Google Play Store, namely Magazine subscriptions and the ability to purchase Movies and TV shows. What I expected was that Google would roll out the features when the Nexus 7 actually launched here in Australia. After seeing the news this morning that the UK would not be seeing these services at launch I asked Google Australia about them and have been advised that these services as well as Music ‘won’t be available at start’. From the wording of that we can surmise that Google Australia is continuing to work through whatever issues are holding them back from launching these services here in Australia. Until then we remain hopeful that these services will launch soon.
