Apple to remove iTunes Store support from older Windows PCs and Apple TVs

In a recent article published by Apple, the company will discontinue support for the iTunes Store on Windows XP and Vista PCs and the first generation of Apple TV. The company in Cupertino says the next changes are due to security updates that will come into force on May 25th.

According to Apple, recently introduced security changes prevent old PCs from accessing the iTunes Store. Windows XP and Windows Vista are no longer officially compatible with Microsoft and the latest version of iTunes is not even available for these operating systems.
