[...] Mark Evans might want to not care about the so-called patent issue I want to call bullshit. Look we have three companies and one government agency involved here – [...]

We need a new way of thinking in Canada.
We invented the smart phone.

Buy one at Shoppers. There may be a 24 hour Shoppers store near your place. www.twitter.com/hipflip

Thanks Lloyd for your quick reply.

I guess the trick that makes this work is by using a "pre paid" credit card!
Don't have one of those. Darn

Hi Sly,

I just used one of the mailing addresses of a BestBuy store in the states. iTunes won't be able to track it since you are also using a pre-paid Mastercard. Once you set up your US iTunes account, you can then download the different TV episodes and other items on the iTunes store that are not available in Canada. Plus, the movies are cheaper at the US store than at the Canadian store.

Glad to help.

I would love to know how to go about setting one of these "US" accounts… but, if you don't have a US billing address?????

Also, how can you bypass the access restriction to be able to watch TV shows on the net when you're from Canada?

Any help would be appreciated.
