Someone could explain me this:

UK RELEASE CHANGES YET AGAIN!
"Straight Outta Lynwood" will now be released in the UK on November 13! The album is still slated for a Nov. 24 release in Germany and Austria. To date, "Straight Outta Lynwood" has been released in the U.S., Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Italy (digital only), Norway, Finland and Sweden.

Actually, it was released in Italy on October 30.

The best I can figure, it means it's only available as a download (like on iTunes). I had a hard time finding such an online store based in Italy that does sell albums like that, but I'm sure they exist. The closest I could find was Media World, but my computer didn't have the right requirements to access their music site.

well....in italy lots of people don't know how buy an Album on iTunes... Al isn't so famous here, so i think is cool if the album is sell in stores!! The web site that u found is of a store that have lots of Album...but it sucks... It isn't like in the USA!! For example here in italy "The Simpsons 8th Season DVD Box Set" is in stores since 10th October......but Media World still haven't got it !! So if SOL will be sell in italy i think it's difficult find it in stores.....but i hope i'm wrong this time!!

Thanks For the help.... GRAZIE!!! :D

So far, I have seen SOL on online stores such as HMV.co.uk, Play.com etc. The V shop near me closed many months ago, so my nearest store is Oxford Street. I will have to vist there sometime.
