Yeah, you interrupted the standard setup sequence, which would have had
the mysb.com registration after the network setup.  So it _insists_ you
do it the next time the system boots up with a successful network
connection.  Why there's no way out of the screen is anybody's guess. 
Things like that get broken all the time and nobody notices.

That's a fairly unusual setup, but I was a bit dismayed when I saw just
how deeply they buried the remote server option and where they put it. 
I'm amazed that you found it at all.  I seem to recall that setup of a
remote server had been in the My Music menu at one time (probably still
during the beta testing), but somebody figured that it wouldn't be used
very often, so they buried it.
