Where can I buy music for my Galaxy 6 Edge?

Where to buy music? Galaxy 6 edge

Hey, I've switched to the S6 Edge recently after using an iphone for the past 5 or so years, I've been wanting a change for a while and Im very happy with my switch, I love 95% of things about this new phone (and the different OS etc, of course).
I am having one problem though. I bought a few albums on iTunes in the day, and I can't seem to find a way to get the music from itunes to my android phone.
While thats sort of annoying, I don't mind paying for said albums again, the thing is, I just can't.
I should mention that Im from Israel. Spotify isn't available here , and whenever I try to download music from the google play store, it says "This service is currently unavilable in your country" so... As you can tell Im in a bit of an annoying spot, so if anyone could help and tell me either how to bypass either of the 3 problems, or just tell me of an different solution, that'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! The easiest way to get your iTunes purchases to your Android device would be to download the iTunes music to your computer, then upload the music to your Google Play Music library (using either the Google Play Music website or the Google Music Manager):

Once the music is in your Google Play Music library, you can stream it from any device that's logged into your Google account. You can also download the music locally.

This may or may not work. If I recall correctly if the music you purchased through iTunes has a DRM attached it will not play through a non-Apple product. I believe this music needs to be played through iTunes or an iPhone.

For my music I like purchasing it through Amazon Music.

Apple stopped using DRM on iTunes purchases in 2009, so as long as the music was purchased after that, it ought to work.
