Signing up for ITunes US Account (from Singapore) without having to use a credit card

I found this really useful tip online, to sign up for a US ITunes account without having to provide your credit card information.

You will need your Mac/Macbook in order to do this.

1. On your Mac, under System Preferences, click on "iCloud". 

2. There is a Manage button in the right bottom corner. Click on it.

3. Click "View account", and enter your Apple ID and password (or if you do not have one, sign up for it first).

4. Apple ID Summary will appear and you may edit your Payment information there,

5. There is the option to choose "None" under payment in this page.

Viola! You are now set to download free apps/content from ITunes US!

PS: after fiddling around the store for a day or so, I find that ITunes US has loads more interesting and better apps!!
