If you could use a gift card bought in Germany to credit an US iTunes account, it would be too easy to circumvent those restrictions. A gift card and a fake address is all you need for an iTunes account after all. I guess the issue is rooted in rights holders restricting content to specific regions.

Although it involves harassing users to give their physical address it still might be the only officially accepted solution. Also we should make sure that Amazon sells gift cards in each country we plan to send them to users :) Thanks that’s a good tip!

I live in USA but order from Amazon.co.uk when I send gifts to family in England. How about ordering physical gift cards from Amazon in the target country.
