What the King sez... The reason is that laws governing financial transactions are specific to that country... but it does make one wonder about The European Union and the EURO € Monetary System - seems like Apple might play along if your card was purchased with Euros - give the Store Group a chance to answer that for you

That won't work, you can't gift to an account based in another country, and you can't use an account's balance for gifting (it can only be done via a credit card).

That's too bad. One thing you can do is use multiple iTunes accounts. If henrifrommunich could create an Austrian account, he could purchase content from Austria. I strongly suggest purchasing content that will not have to be updated. Use it to buy music, movies, or TV shows, not apps. While apps will work, you will constantly be having to log out, switch stores, and log back in every time those apps get updated. It's a real hassle.
