Find Music by Genre

The main page of the iTunes Store can be a bit overwhelming, especially if you just want to slip in and buy a few Celtic music tracks or browse the latest additions to the Classical section. To quickly find music by genre, click the Genres drop-down menu conveniently located next to the Music link.

On this handy menu, twenty different musical genres await you, from Alternative to World, with Hip-Hop/Rap, Latin, Jazz, Reggae, and Rock in between. You'll also find a section for Children's Music.

Select one of the genre options and the middle section of the Store window displays all the latest albums in that category, including the newest releases and songs just added to the ever-growing iTunes catalog. The list of top songs, albums, and music videos along the side of the window also changes to reflect the most popular downloads for the genre you've chosen.
