Apparently they will only sell to US customers, as verified by the billing address on a credit card. This reminds me of the Wowio geographic restrictions on their "free" (non-DRM, advertising supported) ebooks. Sometimes I wonder if someone in the industry is trying to encourage piracy.
Which is why one should always shop for music at iTunes and ebooks at Baen's Webscriptions!!! (Yes, I buy *all* my iTunes music in MP3 format. and one can *never* go wrong buying ebooks from Webscriptions!)
