How do you purchase things from both the Korean Store and the US Store?

Right now my iTunes store is set to the US one, and it won't allow me to purchase Korean content.

It will only let you shop from a country that your credit card is billed too.

So you could keep your US account credit card billed to the US, and have a Korean Itunes account billed to your Korean CC. Or you could just switch cards everytime you wanted to buy something from a store, but that would suck.

Korean Itunes has alot less to offer than the US Itunes. (because of copyright issues)

I just downloaded itunes and it seems to be the Korean version; when I try to look for podcasts it says podcasts aren't available on Korean itunes. Would logging in with my US-based account take care of this?

I wondered why the American itunes didn't have European music. If it's got other countries on it, then you'd think you could buy that content just like how Ebay lets you view and buy stuff from any country being that Ipod owners are people more likely to travel and enjoy a variety of different things.

Of course, I ended up finding a great deal of European techno/trance music for free I was looking for on Youtube and torrents. I found stuff in Bangkok too on cheap pirated CD's.

Download the itunes country version you have a credit or debit card from; otherwise you can get music and videos for free through many online sources and convert the files for itunes to put on your Ipod.

I'd go with that option. Amazon and eMusic let you buy music from Korea and the best part is that none of it has drm.
