Is there a way for non US residents to use Amazon Music?

Tip for best answer: M$2.00
Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I've tried using my US based proxy (which I successfully use for Pandora music) and it does not work. It fails on the credit card check when it detects a no-usa issued card. Perhaps you could use buy a prepaid visa card from the USA somewhere and use that. I have not tried this yet.

I wish they would just open it up to the rest of the world, I dont want to be tied to itunes.

Proxies will not work, unless you are extremely lucky to get one that is inside the BBC inclusion list.

The BBC content is only licensed in the UK, and they appear to be serious in blocking non-UK addresses.

The BBC has a list of all broadband IP addresses in the UK. If you are not on this list, you don't get in.

There are ways to beat the system, and if you have friends in the UK, you can setup a private proxy service on their computer, for the limited access of you or a very few of your friends, you can defeat geotargeting by BBC and ITV and the likes.

Now your friends in the UK would be liable for copyright infringement, for exporting the signal outside the UK, if they ever got caught.

Remember, in the UK you need a licence to own a TV, and they actually have TV police that actively drives around in VAN's with detection equipment, looking for illegal TV signals. Really, im serious !

So you see, the British authorities are rather sticky when it comes to their beloved BBC.

If you're in Facebook or FriendFeed, you have friends. Maybe some in the US. Just get a friend in the US to buy it for you and send it over.

Perhaps, you could hide or change your IP address. They won't be able to detect your geographical location. Some places charge you to convert your IP to one located in any country.
