Just wondering if there is a way to buy TV shows from the USA ITMS in Canada. I really want to get my hands on some shows, but the store kicks me out when I try to purchase.

Buy a US gift card.
 
Does that actually work? I was at the Apple store in Walden Galleria (Buffalo.. I think) and I asked if I could use this in Canada, even if I switched the iTMS to the US one and was told that it would not work. If it will then I'll definitely pick one up! Alternatively, if you had access to a US mailing address and can apply and receive a credit card using that as your address you would also be able to buy from the US store, though is a lot of unncessary legwork...

It works.

I have a card from Japan that I use just fine.
You don't even need a valid address, just a different e-mail.
 
yeah I don't think it is as easy as this! I bought a USA gift card and I require a USA account.

Anybody else done this?
