Services such as Hulu could also be affected, certain youtube files even.

I just lit up a new IP netblock (assigned directly from ARIN) and the companies
that provide Geolocate databases do not have the correct location information
available yet.
Specifically Maxmind (http://www.maxmind.com/) thinks we are in Canada and
IP2LOCATION (http://www.ip2location.com/) has no data.
For the most part this is benign or at worst slightly impacting since I often get
redirected to global load balance nodes up in Canada instead of locally in the North
West, however, the more major issue I am running into is that Google chooses to
redirect all my users to www.google.ca<http://www.google.ca>.
You may also find that certain things are unavailable to your users.
Sometimes sheet music or books are only available in the US for
copyright reasons.
