Underworld iTunes-only releases gone?

[TheBang]

JAL to Tokyo EP is available once again on the iTunes Store Japan, now in iTunes Plus (DRM-free) format. People who previously purchased the EP can upgrade to iTunes Plus for ¥450.

¥1500 Gift Cards are available for US$20.00 from this seller. I have bought from him before. Unfortunately, ¥1500 seems to be the smallest amount available.

Once you obtain an iTunes Japan gift card code, you can redeem it using the steps here: http://www.jbox.com/PRODUCT/ITUNESCARD

Another lost customer!

I can't install itunes on my PC but would love to buy the JAL to Tokyo EP!!!
Why don't they sell it in the underworldlive shop???

Here's my money... you just have to take it...

to put it simply...

dude - this is not cool.

I really see no point in making some releases territory restricted, especially with iTunes being DRM-free now

and sure "all I have to do" is buy a country specific gift card, etc etc
but really? ...yea - that's actually too much work for an MP3

it'd be super to finally have the JAL EP and that one mix of Beautiful Burnout (oh and the Mark Knight Dub of it as well)

but what I also noticed...
is that I always thought that the reason why "Footwear Repairs" was never released on dvd was b/c of TVT Records - yet Born Slippy is available via iTunes....

concur as usual with joethelion

Unfortunately it has to do with the licensing and legal issues between regions. It's the same reason DVD's, Blu-rays and video games are usually locked to a single region.

It doesn't seem to make any sense when you are a paying customer and you want to be able to buy and enjoy something from somewhere else, but it is unfortunately the way some things have to be.

I'm not really sure where to post this, but i guess this is as good as anything.

i read that apple has added paypal for use in purchasing tracks.

does anyone know if it works on international songs? or is it
only for tracks in the US store.

According to this, it only works in a few countries, and it doesn't help you bypass country restrictions, as they check the country of origin for your PayPal account:

Gift cards are still the best way to buy from foreign iTunes Stores.
