Music Banter - View Single Post - US and UK versions of albums (and others): why do they exist?

Some albums are released later in the opposing country so sometimes B sides and other tracks that were recorded after are added on. It's exactly the same with DVD'S too. The amount of stuff that goes missing extra wise is ridiculous sometimes. In fact that gives me a little pointer. I know that some extras don't have the copyright in different countries or the release label doesn't so maybe that's the same with CD's?
