A number of reports have come to the scene over the last few days indicating that users have had problem accessing the Mac App Store, with quite a few users also reporting issues with the iTunes Store.
While reports informed of the Mac App Store temporarily going down, at times outage seemed more widespread and worrisome, even if it is inconsistent and affected users are normally able to regain access after a few minutes.
Observers are obviously looking for any sign that the launch of OS X Lion may be about to happen, as the next-generation operating system will only be available through the Mac App Store. And due to this reason, the apparent issues with the Mac App Store that are still going on occasionally become irritating.
