ITunes Stores

[seagal]

Do you have an idea why a movie is available in one ITunes store in HD and in all other ITunes stores not?

What is the reason for that?

I´m asking because the Burt Reynolds movie "Shamus" is only available in the Mexican ITunes Store and even in HD.

You can´t find the movie in other ITunes stores around the world.

Usually it’s down to licensing.

But that´s really odd. Why does the Mexican ITunes store licensing it and all other streaming store not, really odd.

It’s nothing to do with iTunes it’s down to the studio distributing it and what distribution rights they have from country to country.
Likewise in the UK we don’t have Lock Stock And Two Smoking Barrels available when it’s available in the US, and in the US they don’t have Dark Angel(I Come In Peace) when we have it in the UK.
Perhaps you be better off asking Sony as to why it’s not available elsewhere.

U.K. here and I was shocked to see lock stock wasn’t available, and even worse…. It was in the us store.

This and a few other movies made me finally create a us iTunes account, so I have it now!
