Ok - been waiting for the soundtrack album for Cloud Atlas to come out. Now it is out today on Amazon.com website but not UK one and won't be until Jan'13. Tried to buy it on Amazon.com website and it refused saying I needed to buy it from the UK one  Not on iTunes either. Almost as if they want people to download it illegally ! |

You can get the CD on import if you are that desparate for it. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Cloud-Atlas-Var ... 903&sr=8-1 But I know, that goes against the principle of the matter in hand. |

It's is probably the publishers/record company or whoever that is not releasing it here rather than Amazon. |

I've rather given up trying to buy stuff from abroad via Amazon, they do seem to have a very tight-arsed attitude about it. Gnerally speaking if you find a smaller online retailer in the 'source country' they're happy to send stuff to you. (that reminds me, 'tails of fail' thread...) |

They also restrict buying of foreign e-books. meaning that I can't get any French books to read on my kindle

Might try again when I get home tonight using "Hide My Ass" program so I can pretend I'm in USA. |

I'd use a different proxy if I was you. They've been keeping lots of logs recently |
