    What I was wondering is how does itunes pay the mechanical royalties to the copyright owners and how much does it pay out of that $1.69 ? I cant find any info on this anywhere.

    I have an iRiver Clix - can I still use iTunes nad download the songs from it to my iRiver? Does iTunes work with any other brands at all?

    you can buy itunes cards on ebay. For Australian iTunes cards go to www.ebay.com.au and search for "itunes gift card"

    Can someone explain easily how I can buy thins on the Australian iTunes when I am in the US? There are several silverchair things not available to us fans over here and it's driving me insane. I have heard that you can buy Australian iTunes gift cards online but I can't find where.

    well i have tried to dowenload music from other international stores but they wont let me.
    So I browse the songs I wont on my ipod and use Limewire to get the international ones.
    If they are not willing to sell them.. then I have no problem getting them for free.

    Hi, you can also buy a US itunes gift Card on www.EBID.net and use it from Australia accesing the US itunes store...

    1. Register a US PayPal account. Any US address works.
    2. Link your Aussie credit card to your US PayPal account (yes, this works fine)
    3. Register US iTunes account using the same address you used to register your PayPal account
    4. In US iTunes account, choose PayPal as your payment option.
    Use the iTunes Shopping Cart feature, rather than Buy It Now, in the event that your CC company happens to charge any international transaction fees, this way, you can download multiple stuff, but get billed only once for it, therefore, only one transaction fee...
