Makes me happy I'm Canadian.

cyber laws are hard to enforce because anyone anywhere can post anything. So, in theory a person inside the USA could really just use a host outside of the US and nothing could be done about it.

Mail a canadian your server that streams the radio station/cash to pay for a new connection... We'd be happy to keep them running in our basements.
Hope that isn't illegal.

but most of the best internet radio stations are in the us

and technicly it is already illegal for an american to stream outside country internet radio but it isnt enforced well at all
