Wow, this is a great thread. When this gets sussed out, I may move the information to the front page to help out people looking for this information. I also live in Asia, but I am Canadian and from time to time, would love to redeem stuff from the US store. Actually, I really wish there was international access to other stuff. I'd love to buy from the Japanese store as they get pretty much everything the Canadians get (well, not the TV shows and small artists) and a lot of the US stuff too. No movies, but who cares?
