Turns out Top Gear probably will never be available on iTunes, at least with the music that the show originally aired with. upyourego points out that while the BBC is free to use any music they wish in shows they broadcast on TV in the UK and in limited-time Internet versions, their licensing agreement doesn’t apply to long-term versions.

This is the exact same reason why full seasons of Top Gear aren’t available on DVD, only certain specials and best-of’s are — both with different music.
