iTunes UK / US
Morning,
I'm looking for an album that apparently is only available on iTunes US.
Is it possible to download from iTunes US in the UK? I'm assuming no because of copyright laws etc.
Can't find this album anywhere - not even torrents....

Re: iTunes UK / US
Nope, Not unless you have an American card and billing address. It's is because of deals with the record labels, it's the same with Amazon.  They have a much better range in the American store and I really wish they would just let us buy from it!

Re: iTunes UK / US
I read somewhere that there was a way around it. Basically, someone from America gifts it to you, you get an email telling you, and you download it.
Not sure if Apple have closed this loophole though, best to try checking with one track first

OK....don't laugh now...
It's the soundtrack to "The Black Hole" by John Barry.
Remember that film by Disney in 1979?
Not to be confused with a film by the same name released in 2006!

I have the soundtrack on LP somewhere, but it was never released on CD because of some digital incompatibility, although it was the first ever film score to be recorded digitally apparently!
