The iternet isn't as international as it should be

When it comes to web based apps, surely your location (language permitting) shouldn't exclude you from being able to access a site or service.

Off course, governments and organisations may wish to block you, but that's a different story.

Why are those of us in the UK blocked from using Pandora? I really want to download the Pandora app but being outside the US makes this impossible.

It looks like an excellent app and I really miss using Pandora.

This isn't the only case of this either. In this day and age, anything served up as a digital download should really be released simultaneously across the globe, shouldn't it?! I don't think I'd be far off if I touted greed as the main reason, but how much money do record labels and film studios not make by not having international releases for digital companies compared to the money they loose from piracy and people using proxies to get around these restrictions?

DRM sucks too by the way.
