Why is music that was there last week, not there anymore?

Last week i bought some music videos from the Australian Music Store.
Specifically POD, Tribute and Wonderboy by Tenacious D. I showed my friend who also has an iPod and he wanted to buy them too.
However, now they are missing from the iTunes Store, like they never existed.
Can someone explain to me the mechanics of how and why of this?

But it was
almost certainly at the request of the record label.
Sometimes they just license for a limited time, or
there may have arisen some issue with the rights
(perhaps someone appearing in the video from whom
they didn't get a release) later.
Ok, so i still have a license to use these songs right? If they had to remove them because of copyright violations does that put me in violation too?
Sometimes they just license for a limited time, or
Oh great, so my chances of getting a cool song or video clip are at the whimsy of some corporate exec in some plush office far away who gets to dictate what i can and can't have access too. And they wonder why people pirate music?
Ok, ok, bit of a rant, i guess i will just have to live it.. and grumble.. or maybe send some heated emails. I wish Apple was more "informative" and actually told us what was going on sometimes.
