Help!

Is there any way to get around the store location system of iTunes? I'm trying to buy an album but it's only available on the UK store so... any ideas? Is this a case where piracy is the only option?

I usually buy the actual CD/DVD from a store within the country it's available in, and have it shipped to me. Generally, they have no problem shipping out of the region, just as long as it's sold there.

Try amazon and see if they have it.

who buys music?

Bridget · 01-16-2010, 01:21 AM

People who purchase their music directly from the artist.

Etzell · 01-16-2010, 02:03 AM

I do.

FT, try Amazon.co.uk. I order crap from there from time to time, they've got some stuff that Amazon.com doesn't show.They'll ship to Canadia. But I'm pretty sure you're stuck with a hard copy, and from the sounds of it, you don't want that.

Regardless, get the hard copy, rip it to your computer. I'd rather do that than fuck with the iTunes store. (If I want to show a friend a band, I can give 'em a flash drive with a CD or so on it. iTunes pulls that: "THIS ISN'T YOUR MUSIC BAAAAAH!" bullshit.)

I really think people should buy music, but when they do things like this which make it more inconvenient for you they're just asking for you to pirate it.

FrenchToast: I have access to a very very exclusive music site. It does not have what you requested. However, it does have several other bands that were part of the Tunes Live: London Festival '09 - EP.

Sorry

Yeah, and the fucking irritating part is that every other band from that show is available on Canadian iTunes. I don't know what the deal is. I'm going to get in touch with apple and see if they can do anything about it... but I get the feeling I'm shit outa luck.
