US iTunes Accounts

It’s been a while since I’ve seen anything about doing this however there’s a movie on the US iTunes store that I just can’t get anywhere else.

What’s the current method for using a US iTunes account in Australia? Gift cards off eBay? Are there any geo-blocking restrictions?

iTunes tighten this up a few years ago so you actually can’t register without a US credit card and address. Not sure about geolocation as well but I know family and friends who tried and gave up. People who got it when you could have been grandfathered.

I managed to create a US Apple ID ok just now, selecting a free app gives the payment method of none.

Beyond that is it just a matter of getting US iTunes credit?

Great. I go here to get my US iTunes gift cards:

Sorted and downloaded. Beats paying $28 for delivery of a DVD :slight_smile:
