iTunes workaround for non-US users

Posted by Frank Koehntopp as Blogging

Welcome back!

Don’t you hate it that APple makes movies. TV shows and even some songs available exclusively via the US store? Jenneth from Gear Diary has a solution:

“Lucky for me, a recently-discovered workaround lets Aussie users buy TV shows and movies through the iTunes US store – just sign up for PayPal using a US address! Naturally I’ve tried this out myself, and it works just as promised. Sweet! Now if you’ll excuse me, I’ve got some TV shows to watch …”

I’m not sure if PayPal will like this, but I’ll take it as just another occurence of people voicing dissatisfaction with DRM.

To say it in Volker’s words: “Repeat after me: DRM is bad for the customer.
