Just go to the store's website and buy tracks the normal way. Almost all online music download stores will sell you music no matter where you live. The only exceptions are the stores that sell major label music, e.g. the iTunes Store and Amazon, which restrict by country of residence.

Make sure the music you are buying is in MP3 format. MP3 is a universal format and plays the same anywhere.

My Apple ID is only limited to Indonesia iTunes Store. I would like to buy some music from iTunes USA Store. How could I use my Indonesia-based credit card in order for me to buy music from another iTunes store? The iTunes Indonesia store is very limited.

Getting Music from Another Country

Im a big fan of japanese rock and other music but it wont let me purchase music under the japanese music store. Can anyone tell me how to do this or if it is possible.

Expanding a bit, in order to buy from another country's iTunes Music Store, you must have either:
a) a credit card with a billing address in that country, or
b) a mailing address in that country and a gift certificate or a prepaid card that was bought in that country.
If you cannot fulfill one of these two sets of conditions, you will not be able to purchase from any given country's iTMS.
This, BTW, is due to restrictions placed on Apple by the record companies and other rights holders (who are often completely different from country to country and so all require their own individual negotiations and contracts), not by Apple's choice.

Buying content from another country.

I want to buy audiobooks and music from Italy, listen to Italian podcasts. Is there a good way to go about doing this? I tried changing my country preferences to Italy but it will not allow you to do it. It wants an Italian address. Also it will not allow you to purchase with an American bank account, so it will not even allow me access to free downloads. Does anyone know of a way around these hurtles?

Short answer, no. In order to purchase from another country's store, the copyright holders for content require that you have a credit card with a billing address in that country. These are requirements set by copyright holders on Apple as the copyright holders do not care for cross-border sales.
Just a suggestion as a new poster, you might want to try the "search" window in the upper right, to see if your question may have been asked previously, that way you don't have to wait for someone to come along with an answer. For example, this question on how to buy from another country's store is asked & answered literally dozens of times per week in both the Windows & Mac forums.

Purchasing Music from another Country Store

Hi,
I dislike the fact that I can't get music from other store than the one from my country. As an example, on the USA store, there is much more albums from internationnal artists than on the Canadian store. That's a bit annoying. Some older albums that I can preview, but I can't buy.
Thanks.

Copyright holders for content vary from country to country, so until the Canadian copyright holders for any content you might be interested in, allow Apple to distribute, there is nothing Apple can do.

Can I purchase music from another country?

I want to purchase the track "Empires" by a British artist named Lamya. She passed away and it is a very good song. I can see that the song is for sale on the US iTunes site but it says I cannot purchase it because I am in Canada. How can I access it? I don't understand why there is a restriction for this. If I went to the UK and bought the CD there, I could bring it back to Canada and it wouldn't be a problem. If I bring my laptop to the US and purchased it while in the US, would I be able to keep it on my laptop, iphone when I returned to Canada?

You can't - the Terms of Use of the stores state that you can only buy from the country that you are in (e.g. due to licensing/distribution terms etc)

How To Buy Songs From Another Country

My "home account" is in Switzerland.
As an "enka" fan, however, I would like to buy songs from the Japanese iTunes Store.
Is this possible, e.g., by creating a second account? If not, what do I have to do?

In order to purchase in the Japan store, you would have to have a credit card with a billing address in Japan.

Why Can't I buy music from other country's music store?

There are albums I want to buy (in Spain's music store, in particular) but I can't. And for some futarded reason, those albums aren't available in the USA's music store.
Why is this? When are they going to fix it? Why doesn't the world revolve around me and my tastes?

Jay,
this has been discussed more than once:
It's the decision of the big record labels and/or the copyright holders - it's not a decision made by Apple.
So there won't be any "fix" until the record labels will change their attitude.

Buying iPad from another country

I want to order an iPad with wifi + 3G at Appel's website .
I live in Israel but I have a US address .
Can I order the iPad ( AT&T version ) without Monthly payment to AT&T ?
Thanks

There is no committment to paying AT&T when you order the AT&T iPad version. However, not only will you need a US address to ship it to, but also a US credit card (I believe).

If you can't find what you want in your local ibookstore, the best fix is normally to look in the other ebook stores which also provide free ereader apps for your device, such as Kindle, Nook, Kobo, Googlebooks, Sony.

Buying apps from another store?

Is there any way of buying apps from another country store and using them on your ipad? There are some apps I would like but for some reason are not available on my own country store.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

No - the terms of use of the iTunes stores say that you can only buy from the country that you are currently in (and, I'm not sure on this, but you may also need to have a credit card registered in that country).

Help with purchasing with from another country's Music Store

I'm trying to buy some song from the German iTunes Music Store but iTunes won't let me because my credit card isn't a German credit card. I don't see why this is a problem because the artist and Apple are still going to get money from my purcashe, just from a different country. Any suggestions on the best way to buy a song from the German Music Store?

its the record companies at fault companies like warner and emi in the uk dont want you to buy music from warner in the US or emi in germany as it is lost revenue to that business unit.. record companies are not benevolent suppliers of art they are capitalists and like to accrue money, the whole issue of the music lovers desire for global trading of music has long frustrated them and hence why hefty prices are paid for music imports.. this issue was what frustrated Apple's desire to produce the euro itunes store and the segmenting of the store by country was one of the things it had to do to get the labels to agree to let them have music to sell. The online music sales phenomenon has highlighted the despicable business tactics of the record labels and the EU are i believe investigating them and their shady practises....
