Inappropriate?Sorry about that!
Legally offering Pandora services to residents outside of the United States is on our wish list, and we'll work out the details as we can. Audio content streaming regulations differ from country to country, and currently it is only legal for us to stream Pandora in the United States.
Delivery of Pandora is based on proper licensing from the content rights holders - we have always believed strongly in honoring the guidelines as determined by the artists, labels and publishers. In the U.S. there is a federal statute called the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that provides this license for all the music you hear on Pandora. Unfortunately, there is no equivalent license outside the U.S.
We will post any updates on our blog regarding our ongoing effort to launch in other countries, so please stay in touch. In all honesty, we don't have the resources to pursue licensing arrangements in many countries in the immediate term, but we do have the ultimate goal of being able to offer our service globally. We greatly appreciate your understanding and support!
Best,

Yes.. that part I know... The question I was really asking is : Is there a way that Canadians people can help Pandora to make it happen? Like petitions, writting letters, etc.. ? Me and a lot of other people are really willing to help... If we can .. :/ -
Inappropriate?We'll let you know if there's ever anything you can do to help! Thanks so much for your support. That means a lot.

Do you have any references you can give me to get informations about what Pandora would need to be able to stream in Canada? I know it's related to the DMCA but.. I would like to get more specific informations about what in the DCMA allows Pandora to be able to stream in the US and not elsewhere.
