Bugger, just put my product key in and when it heads to the next screen you can only use that site to purchase new keys in the US Sorry, will look around a bit more, have you thought of purchasing a cheap OEM copy?
You can only buy M$ licences without the media under a volume licencing program. That usually means you want at least 5 licences for any one item of software. It's really only relevant to businesses.
I usually just buy OEM software (like Paul's suggestion). Thereare various grades when it's legal to use this on your PC, the simplest is when you upgrade the hardware yourself. Since most of my PCs have an additional memory chip, or somethign that simple, its OK for me to use OEM. Having said that I don't know how M$ would know you haven't upgraded. All they say is they won't "support" OEM software (that's the retail advantage), but you can still download all the patches from their website.
