Can I purchase songs from many country iTunes Stores ?

If I want to purchase songs from diffrent country's stores,can I do that? And if I can, can I play it on my iTunes and/or my iPod?

Unless you can show some form of residency you cannot buy from another country's store. The question on cross store purchasing is asked frequently so I'll just quote the most complete answer (courtesy of Dave Sawyer) from the many given:
In order to buy from any given 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 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. And this also applies to all the legal download stores that carry major-label content, not just the iTMS.

    You cant, because of licensing issues apple wont allow you too purchase songs which they dont have licens too sell in your country.

    You cannot purchase from any other country's iTunes Store. The content owners will not allow cross-border sales.

  • Purchasing songs from non-US itunes stores

    I am trying to download an album that is only available from the itunes Ireland store but I'm not allowed because I am registered in the US. How can I download this?!

    Megan, the short answer is no, you must have a credit card with a billing address in the country of interest. See the following link for a complete explanation.

  • Purchase songs from other international iTunes stores?

    I know you can switch back and forth between international stores but can you purchase from the international stores?
    I've got as far as 'billing address' but it asks me where my billing address is, I say, "U.S." and it reverts me back to the U.S. iTunes store, does this mean i cannot purchase from international iTunes stores? Do I need to set up another account? I'm a bit confused and afraid to say 'yes' to things that my get charged that I don't want charged..
    your help is greatly appreciated.
    - Tina

    The way I understand it, you need a valid adress in a country whose iTS you want to use. Likewise, Europeans cannot use the American Store, which has a lot of things we don't have.
    So, unless you know someone with a valid adress in one of these countries, I'm afraid you're out of luck.
    Hope this helps.

    Help me

    This possibly the dumbest thing Apple can do. I just found out the hard way my father in law will not be getting his christmas present. Yes I should have read the fine print, but I honestly thought Apple was smarter than that.
    Obviously they haven't seen the money making potential of this so now I will ask for a refund and take my money elsewhere.

    You could check to see if there are any other stores that you can buy the song from. How about the artist's website? I've bought a couple of MP3s and even CDs from Australian artist's websites.

  • If I change the nation setting of my iTunes in order to buy a song from the American iTunes store, then change my setting back to the Korean store (where you cannot buy music) will that create any problems with my downloaded content?

    If I change the nation setting of my iTunes in order to buy a song from the American iTunes store, then change my setting back to the Korean store (where you cannot buy music) will that create any problems with my downloaded content? I want to buy an album that I cannot get hold of in Korea, but it is available in the US iTunes store. However since most of my apps are downloaded from the Korean store I'll need to switch back in order to update them. Does anyone know if there are any issues in doing this. I'd rather find out before I spend money, change my store setting back to Korea, and then get told I can't listen to the music because I bought it from the US store and my iTunes is set to the Korean store.
    Cheers.

    You canot easily change your country settings.  The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store.  You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
    E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE

  • Songs from other countries' iTunes stores

    Why are songs from other countries' iTunes stores not available for purchasing in the American iTunes store? I found a song that I had been looking for in the French iTunes store, but could not buy it. I was annoyed. Is there any way around it?

    In order to buy from a certain country's iTMS, you do need
    either: a CC with a billing address in that country
    or: an address in that country plus a prepaid card/gift voucher issued by iTMS in that country.
    If you don't meet one of this conditions, there is no solution for you.
    -sorry but the copyright holders wanted it that way; it's their decision to offer a certain track in a certain country or not to offer it.
    Tip; This question on how to buy from another country is asked several times a week in the forums. In the future, I would suggest you do a search on your issue to see, if it has already been answered, that way you don't have to wait quite a long time for a response.

  • Can i purchase song from itunes-malaysia

    I'm Penny from Malaysia, just wonder can i purchase the song from iTunes?
    Thank you.

    You can if the song that you want to buy is in the Malaysia iTunes store, you can't purchase from another country's store (you need to be in a country, and have a billing address in that country on your account, to use its store).
    If the song that you want to purchase isn't in the Malaysia store then you can try requesting that it be added (these are user-to-user forums), but unless the Malaysia rights-holder agrees to it then Apple won't be able to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html

  • HT1918 Can we use apple I'd to purchase from different country iTunes Store

    Hello apple friends

    You can only purchase from your own country's store - to be able to buy from another country's store you need a valid billing address in that country and be in that country when buying from it.
    If there are items that you'd like to buy which aren't currently in your country's store then you could try requesting that they be added, but ultimately it's the content provider (app developer, record company, film studio etc) that will have to grant Apple a license to sell it there : http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunes.html
