International iTunes purchasing
This has become a problem for me as of late.
Some of the music that I have been looking for is not available in the US store, but it is the UK store, but since I have a US account I cant purchase it.
I tried to just make a new account but you need a valid UK address to have a UK account.
Why cant Apple/iTunes just treat a US account holder purchasing UK tracks the same as ordering an import from a record station, or just have a world account option.
I understand that there is content that the creators only want availabe in a certain area, but wtf this is 2008, if you arent going to buy it from them then your prob just gonna get it illegally.
Thoughs?

Search around online and you'll find plenty of places that sell US, UK, Japanese and other iTunes gift cards.
Once you have the card, go to the store you want and enter in the code in the "Redeem" section.
VoilÃ* - you now have credit to spend on whatever you want.

You can always buy UK itunes gift cards to use on the UK itunes without any problems... and you just set up a UK account using ANY uk address, it could be a hotel or whatever.
