Beatport question

Does anybody know how i can bypass the territorial error?

I've run into this problem a couple times. Since there is nothing I can really do to avoid this I download it from soul seek.

What song are you looking for?

1. Find a proxy that is in the country you need.
2. Put the proxy details into: IE -> Toos -> Internet Options -> Connections -> LAN settings

No problem! I'd go into more detail (provide proxies, etc), but I don't want to be responsible for anybody's security woes if they mess up, trust the wrong proxy, etc.

Why does it decide for you what you can and can't buy?

Because they may not have distribution rights on certain tracks for certain markets.
