beatport lose so much £ by doing this. Its retarded and ing annoying.
If they wont sell it, just get on ebay and see you can buy the cd or vinyl from abroad then! or search out other download sites that dont do this! |

| Try finding the same song on a different label. Sometimes they have multiple copies of the same song on Beatport so try another label. |

something to do with royalties i think. Artists are supported by different record labels in different regions. So a label can't profit off an international sale as it might not be their money to claim.
Again i only think this is why. Someone will probably tell me i'm way off the mark lol

Its because certain labels only have the rights to a track for a particular country. Eg, Mylo - In my arms is pressed on Superstar in the UK but in the US its exclusive to Ultra. So Superstar gives beatport the right to sell it anywhere in the UK, but not elsewhere. The only way to get a track that give you a territorial error is to wait until the label that owns the rights in your particular country to release it. That might never happen.
solution? Buy the vinyl or CD from overseas, or check your local record shop. |
