I really like Pandora a lot and I would like to pay the yearly

for "US-based customers"!!??

Why is that?

Pandora states that it is licensing. So, I'd say it was a licensing issue. Copyright is a country by country issue, and if their service depends on a assurances to the national bodies of interest that the copyrighted material remain within the US, then they are sure to do their best to keep their service restricted to the US. It is the same kind of issue that required you to state that you were a resident of north america in order to download 128-bit security for browsers.

It is a value add for slim devices to link up with pandora, regardless. hopefully this is just the first of many. as another non-US citizen, I'll be waiting for the next big thing (or an expansion from pandora) once my 90-days runs out.
