Dear Sir



Thanks for your email and your interest in My Little Pony Friendship is Magic. We understand your frustration but the reason Hasbro can’t make the new episodes available outside of the US on YouTube/iTunes/DVDs etc. is that it would infringe on the deals made with TV networks outside of the US. A TV network would be very upset and could in some cases have a suit against Hasbro if an episode were viewed in their market for free or even via a DVD before it aired on their network.  And some TV network deals also include a certain "holdback" time period on when an episode airs on their network vs. how long it would be OK for it to be aired/available elsewhere.



Unfortunately this also means, that for the time being you need to be patient. In the Scandinavian market the only legal way to currently watch the show is on the children’s channel Boomerang, where the localized episodes are broadcast Mon-Fri at 14:45. But fingers crossed that we at some point will be able to offer episodes both localized and original on iTunes in Europe as well, since we would love to be able to provide this opportunity to all of our fans.



I do hope you will continue to support My Little Pony. Our 2012 line is just beginning to ship to the stores so hopefully you will find some nice items to expand your collection.
