How can I download from other countries iTunes Stores?

I want to download from other countries iTunes stores but I have of course not a credit card for each of these countries and I can use my e-mail address only once (logically )to register. Any chance that I can download from i.E. the French store when I live in the UK?
Thanks for helping me if possible

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.

    I'm not from America, I'm Canadian and I can't download a specific album.  When I transfer to the American store it tells me I'm not authorized to download from there. 
    Anyone know how I can gain authorization?
    Thanks,

    You must be within the Country with a Valid Billing Address and Credit Card for that Country to use the iTunes Store of that Country...

  • 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 watch content downloaded from other country itunes stores

    If I purchase content on overseas itunes store can I watch it here in AU?

    First you will have problems even purchasing it from another country.  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"
    I don't know if there would be issues actually playing it if you did eventually get it on your computer.  There must be people who buy content in one country, then move to another country and I would think we would see many complaints here if all their old content suddenly stopped working.

  • Does Anyone Know How to Buy from Other Countries' iTunes

    Hey, I was just wondering if anyone knows how to buy from other countries' iTunes, because I live in the US and have a US credit card, but alot of the songs I want only seem to be available on the French site.
    Does anyone know if theres some sort of way around this? Would it be possible to, say, buy French iTunes gift cards?

    No, you cannot due to Licensing and copyright issues, which vary from country to country. Unless you have a billing adress in France, you will not be able to purchase from the French iTunes store. Having a gift card from there will not help, because you need to also have a French Billing adress. Sorry,
    Rachyl

    Apple does not offer the option to gift individual books at this time. However, you can always send an iTunes Gift or an iTunes Gift Card to the recipient:
