Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

Can I use vouchers to purchase iTunes Store music in another country?

Someone suggested that I can buy iTunes Store vouchers from eBay and then click "REDEEM" on iTunes Store to buy music EVEN IF I live in a country which does not have iTunes Store. But Apple is trying to make life really difficult for us. In the Q&A section of the iTunes website, Apple says:

"Gift certificates and gift cards purchased on the iTunes Store are valid for use only in the country in which they were purchased. Gift certificates purchased in the United States may only be redeemed by residents of the United States."

Not only that, those who have access to iTunes Store are making unreasonable profits from selling those vouchers. A US$15 iTunes Store voucher is sold for $18.

Can someone advise what I should do?

Not to you specifically, StarDeb55. Just thought the readers of this thread might be interested to know what others around the world are saying about the international copyright problem. I just clicked Reply in your post because it was the last one in the thread.

But as long as I have your attention: Thanks for tipping me off, a few years ago, that it was Earthlink's Accelerator that was messing up my Store downloads.
