I believe it has to do with server issues, ip address and stuff like that. I DO have an american credit card account, but when you go to sign up, the site automatically identifies you as not being from the US and it then takes you to a "thank you, only US residents and its territories may sign up" screen. 
Yeah, thought it had to do with IP address. But can't you just find a proxy server in America? |

Gee, I would if I could!
RealPlayer music downloading in not offered in Canada (which is ironic, since downloading is legal in CA). I would jump in a heartbeat: the Real 192 encoding is far better than Apple's mediocre 128!
How come you can't just say your from america when you sign up? How exactly would they find out your lying? |
