How to use multiple country iTunes stores - (need only apps)
Although my main address is in the US, I travel and spend extended periods of time in other countries. As such I need to get local apps for managing my mobile phone account, bank account, etc in countries other than the US.
Unfortunately I discovered that each country has its own iTunes store and that my iPhone whines when I try to purchase even a free app from those stores.
As ******** as it sounds, my research seems to indicate that I need to create a new account for each country's iTunes store. So before I start doing that I have a few questions:
1) Do I keep a single appleID (email) and open accounts in multiple countries with it, or do I start from scratch and create a new email, appleID, account and all that stuff for each?
2) How will iTunes and my phone handle the multiple accounts?
3) Since I will logout and login to the different accounts for the app downloads and then return to the US one, how will those apps get their updates... since I won't be always connected to the other countries accounts?
Looking forward to the answers, although I have the horrible feeling that Apple might have dropped the ball on this issue and there might not be a decent answer. If so, I have an additional question: Does Android have the same problem? In other words, has Apple decided to not support international travelers properly and would moving to Android make the problem go away?
