I am however intrigued how a digital download can be 'rare'?

 

Nobody sells it.

 

And because not many people want it [or have it] it isn't available through "alternative means".

Exactly, its a German only release. There are plenty of covers, but I want the original. It has a special significance to me.

I guess. I was looking at rare to mean not easily replaced or not created in great numbers. I guess I should have been thinking 'not often found'.

Silly question, but won't it just let you log into the German Amazon and buy it? Done that before for some other stuff, or are they locking it down within the Amazon purchase?

I have purchased stuff from Amazon UK with an Australian address and card. Should be ok.

What makes this rare? The fact its instrumental version?

 

is there an echo in here? ;)

 

Its rare because it was only ever released as a digital download in Germany thats region locked. Its not on any other website, or file sharing platform that I can find.

Can you pay via Paypal? If so, couldn't you set up a one time account and pick some random address in Germany to register it to?

 

I know it's technically fraud but as you're just trying to legally purchase a European product I wouldn't have thought it was illegal... bit of a grey area
