Really happy with the super deluxe, but a little ticked that I can't download the MP3s of it...going to http://www.myplaydigital.com/pearljam I receive the following message:

Our records show that you are coming from the following country: Canada
Unfortunately at this time, purchasing music and promotional code redemption are restricted to US residents.

Hopefully this changes soon.

    I really hope it gets fixed. I was considering trying it from behind an American proxy, but I thought at the last second that I better not in case the download doesn't work and then I lose my code.

    Did you do it at home, or at your workplace?

    There was another thread about this the other day. I'm in Alberta and my ISP is Telus and I had no problem downloading it. I suppose they don't count western Canada as part of Canada, nothing new :)

    Well the first reply gave me an idea...I VPNed in to our US office and was able to hit the site...Unfortunetely it doesn't appear to support Opera, when I click download it does nothing...Now I've used my code and got nothing :(

    I guess I'll have to find a torrent for it or something.

    Here's an easy solution. I live in the US. Send me the link and code, I'll download it and zip it to you!
