YAY!

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
That album cover quiz was too hard for me. I think I got about a dozen and then was totally stumped.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yeah, that was confusing to me. A band I was searching for was not on the US iTunes but instead was on iTunes Canada. Don't they know Canada is part of the US?

So, does anyone know if I would be able to purchase tracks from the UK iTunes? I haven't tried it yet.

... aaaaand the answer is no, no purchasing from the UK iTunes. As soon as I sign in, it tells me that my account is only for purchasing from the US store. Curses!

Before there was a UK store, folks in the UK could only buy from the US store if they had a credit card with a mailing address in the US. So I suppose the same thing is true here.
I think the whole thing is to do with rights and royalties being different in different countries.

Believe me, I've tried to get around this to purchase from the US store, and bar getting an US credit card, nothing has worked. And I was only trying to get free downloads, so it was particularly frustrating.

There are no pan asian supermarkets down in hell, so you can't buy Golden Boy peanuts.
You can buy US iTunes cards on eBay and Apple gives these instructions to set-up an account without a credit card (redeem the card first, then create a new account).
If you have someone you trust in the US, you could bypass eBay, send them money and have them purchase either a gift card or a gift certificate and send it to you.
This should also work for stores in other countries, but start with the minimum amount of money possible in case it doesn't work. The amount of eBay action suggests it does work, but I haven't tried it myself and I don't want anyone getting screwed over.

Ooooh. thank you for posting that, eleanor. I may have to ask one of the UKistas to purchase an iTunes card for me. It looks like the particular digital "single" with two b-sides (so what, a b and a c side?) that I want is only going to be available in the UK.
