It was good while it lasted

Pandora has been forced to lock out non-US listeners:

Dear Pandora Visitor,

We are deeply, deeply sorry to say that due to licensing constraints, we can no longer allow access to Pandora for most listeners located outside of the U.S. We will continue to work diligently to realize the vision of a truly global Pandora, but for the time being we are required to restrict its use. We are very sad to have to do this, but there is no other alternative.

I am sure you know whom to blame.

Sad story, really. It went through digg a few days ago and probably 70% of the comments said "**** the RIAA" ...and I couldn't agree more, considering they're bothering me, here, in Europe.

That reminds me of http://www.last.fm/music/Futuristic+Sex+Robotz/_/Fuck+The+MPAA

I can fully agree with them, especaly with the line: I dont trust trusted computing.

I explain difficult concepts in simple ways. For free, and for money. Clue procurement and bullshit detection.
