How does that work? Outpost has permission to ship overseas? Some soft can't be
shipped OS?
This international copyright shit really shits me. DVD region codes for
instance. You simply can't get most of the stuff I want to watch in Japan. Of
course I have a region free DVD player but it is lucky that we can get region
free players at all. Professional software such as language compilers are
practically unavailable in English and many of them have checks to stop them
being used OS, for instance they won't run on a Japanese system even though
there is no technical reason for it.
