If only it could be offered in my small country too!

I hate how these services and the record labels think only about the US/their country.

For example one of my favourite bands is Italian and apparently most of their older music is blocked on youtube in my country. There really is NO WAY for me to get the music legally. Even the torrents have very few seeders and I'm scared in a few years I won't be able to listen to this music anymore. I just hope i won't lose my backups.

They do think about your country, and all of the non-US/CA/UK territories.

But licensing is complicated, difficult to manage, and is frankly a mess. So it's often not worth it to launch in many territories at first; and in some territories, not ever.

also, best way for you and for the band: contact them directly for their music. It's legal, and I'm sure they'd appreciate it.
