I just tried to purchase from the German store with my account (which is registered to the UK store).
It wouldn't let me, an error message informed me that my account can only purchase music from the UK store.
As the parent says, is this legal under EU law?

"Although the UK does not have a Constitution"
t itution the definition of a Constitution is:
I know this is a bit pedantic, but the UK DOES have a Constitution. According to websters http://www.webster-dictionary.org/definition/cons
The fundamental, organic law or principles of government of men, embodied in written documents, or implied in the institutions and usages of the country or society; also, a written instrument embodying such organic law, and laying down fundamental rules and principles for the conduct of affairs.
The UK Constitution consists of various legislation and conventions such as the Magna Carta 1215, Bill of Rights 1689 and the Act of Union (with scotland) of 1800....etc
"In any case, for the near future if you want to run a 64 bit operating system you will either be using one of the free Linux versions or the free download of Windows XP-64 beta. "
