How about your neighbor's part of the world? 😁

Hi Michael I'm afraid I don't understand your question.

That's because it was directed at your buddy!

You asked him what part of the world he lived in.

He responded that he does not give out personal info.

So I asked what part of the world does his neighbor live in with a laughing smiley face! 😁

Well I'm a collector of ITunes music and I was wondering what country they were in because as your aware different countries have more of a variety of music.

I'm in the USA.

While I recently trans-shipped a copy of Snow Leopard Server to Italy for a member here who needed it and could not get it directly from the Apple Store, I would not recommend that anyone do the same for digital downloaded music.

Whereas Apple owns all of the territorial rights to Snow Leopard Server, this is not necessarily true in the music industry. Also, I acquired it on a physical medium, DVD.

It is commonplace for recording contracts to be entered into separately for different regions of the world and this would affect the digital download rights.

To the extent that a CD version is available in the USA for music that you are looking for, I would be happy to acquire it for you and then forward it to you, all at your expense, of course.

Why the difference? In the USA it is knows as the "first sale" doctrine.

Google "Kirtsaeng v. John Wiley & Sons" and read about yesterday's US Supreme Court decision on this issue.

I am in HK and trying to send an itunes e-gift card to someone in Australia just to know that this is not possible.. I find this ridiculous since this e-gift is not a music item but a card/code that allows the receiver to redeem this amount for him/her to purchase stuff in Australia. Even if I send out 100 HKD it should be converted to the currency on the time when the receiver redeem this in his/her itunes. Please educate me how the copyrights policy or whatever has anything to do with this?

Apple is an international company with a global reach. The fact that you can't even send apps (which surely have none of the restrictions that music might be subject to) as gifts between countries -even in Europe (which contravenes European legislation)- can have no explanation other than Apple conforming to their tax avoidance schemes. What other possible explanation could there be?

In anticipation of a swift censure from Apple Uber-Command,

A very dissatisfied customer

(who spends way too much on Apple products)

Gee no wonder China were able to have fake Apple Stores on the street, considering that company is not globalized enough to allow for such basic things!...
