Unhappy Scribd and Canadian subscribers

Scribd must have made some changes. Suddenly, a book I was in the middle of reading is 'not available in my country'.

I pay my subscription through PayPal, and the billing address with PayPal is to my Canadian credit card. I don't know how Scribd knows my geographic location...actually, I am physically in the U.S. at the moment and I have been here all winter. The tech support person who responded to my e-mail assumed I was in the U.S. So it's not an IP address thing.

Apparently all books by Penguin are not available to Canadian subscribers. A couple of times in the past two days this has happened--I come across the title of a book I am interested in, and Scribd has always been the place I check first. Not available in my country.

I hear the clock ticking on my subscription...between the app freezing whenever my device is connected to the internet, and now this...
