abc family "licoln heights" - via iTunes? help!

Post by gitarrero » Thu Dec 06, 2007 11:17 am

hi folks,I was told that it's possible to download parts of the series "lincoln heights" (abc family) via iTunes but only from computers within the U.S.this would be very interesting for me because one of my tracks is used in this series, and I could use it for a showreel I'm currently preparing...so my questions are:* is this true? if not - does anybody know another possibility to download/get this series?* if it's possible via iTunes - can anybody from the u.s. help me downloading it? I'm living in switzerland/europe. of course I'd pay for the costs of iTunes.thanks!martin

Hey Martin,I can take a look on I-tunes and if it's there I can download it for you. I can then post it up on either an FTP site if you have one or I can post it up on Rapidshare, although I might have to split it and with WINRAR if the file is larger than 100Mb.Otherwise some of the shows are availabe now at the network sites for download, although I haven't tried them out yet. You may want to try ABC.com or google ABC Family for a website.I'll let you know what I find.Thanks,Cisco

Hey Martin,They have episodes available on I-Tunes for download. I checked the ABC Family website, but they only have previews of the episodes and they point you to I-Tunes for downloads.PM me if you need me to help out with the download.Cisco

Hi Cisco - I happen to have the same predicament as Martin here. Same show different episode. The show that has a song from my catalogue is dated Oct 9th. Neither ABC.com or iTunes will allow downloads to Canada. So if you are able to do this thing for Martin, would it be possible to also download this other episode, my song is on? It will be frikkin awesome to see it. It's also pretty easy to send a big file with http://www.yousendit.com/ but I'm guessing you already know about that company.

just something to keep in mind, if cisko buys any iTunes content, it will only play on computers that cisko has authorized. I think with iTunes you can designate five different computers, but you'll have to share your username/password with Martin.All in all, pretty easy to do, just requires a little dancin'If you don't want to do that--If it hasn't aired (and assuming I can find the time) I can record it off the air, then digitize and post it for you.Do you know the episode name or #?

Just for fun i sent an email to itunes support. basically saying i have a friend with an itunes account who currently does not have internet access. is it possible for me to buy songs/video that i can burn to a disc and have the files authorized for their machines. I also mentioned that the files will not have to play on my machine at all.They are supposed to respond within 48 hours. It's worth a shot.Rob
