Had to buy again.

I purchased this on iTunes on 9/16/2012 but the album was modified (not by iTunes) and now iTunes considers it a different album. So even though it shows up in my purchase history I am forced to purchase it again. Apple’s response was, “The option to re-download items again is not a guarantee, and only available as a complimentary service at the discretion of the content uploader, we advise all customers to ensure they make a back up of all their iTunes purchased content.” So I will no longer be buying anything on iTunes because it can just disappear for no reason.
