American only contest. Again. Much noise and fury, with some Americans looking very silly.
One point they didn’t seem to touch on. All well and good for the .com site to be US 50 States only, but from I’ve seen, none of the other sites (.ca .co.uk) ever seem to run contests.
I feel for those outside the US who are excluded from this or other sweepstakes. It sucks that they don’t even have their own (localized) sweepstakes to make up for it. I guess you’ll have to find a friend or relative in the states to enter on your behalf.
It’s more the ‘lack of localized sweepstakes’ that gets me.
Well that, and you can’t download MP3s off amazon.com (from outside the states) or at all from .ca — iTune.ca works though. Actually, selection for most things is about 1/10th of the US site..
It’s funny how they cite ‘confusing international sweepstakes laws’ — and in the same breath go on about the unique and obtuse tax laws the US has with them…
