Pippin, thanks very much for the reply and for the suggestion -- I never actually tried as I assumed the service would be using an IP location database. Sure enough, when I changed my location from Canada -- United States in my SqueezeNetwork profile, the following message appears in red: We

Those were really sad news indeed, but I guess I saw it coming since a lot of streaming services are going this way. At least they will still allow subscriptions worldwide. Interested to know how this would affect, since i heard streaming to non-official 3rd party devices would be disabled. --
