iTunes Song Previews not playing

Various song previews in the iTunes store don't play and endlessly load.

I have reinstalled numerous times but the issue remains the same.

I don't know what to do, can someone please help me?

Not all songs either, just some won't play preview and seem stuck when clicking play for the preview. Even in the same album some songs will preview and others won't. I'm running Ventura 13.5. Before I upgraded from the prior version of Ventura all songs would preview. Now some songs that used to preview now longer do.

Unable to preview songs in iTunes Stumped the support folks at Apple so far. Some songs in iTunes preview no problem, others won't play at all. For the ones that don't play, when I click on the play button, it just spins for an eternity. There doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason as to what songs will preview without issue and the ones that don't work. Things I've tried: Reset iTunes cache Running iTunes diagnostics (all was fine) Signed out of apple ID and back in Restarted my computer a million times Disabled Apple Music Purchased a song that I couldn't preview prior to purchasing. As soon as I purchased it, the "preview play" button played the song without issue. Other songs on the same particular album continued to have the "spins" Truly perplexing.
