But that's trickier than it sounds as Apple is not eager to accept international PayPal accounts or credit cards. If you want to download some program from the US Apple Store, you need to get access to the US Apple Store. To get access to the US Apple store, you only change the address and nation of your Apple ID and then you are good to go.
