So, does this only effect American consumers? If so, then couldn't I just buy some of the equipment they're putting limits on in Canada, where the standards aren't mandantory? Also, could I buy a Sony (are they american? i forget.) recorder in Canada and it'll be fine, or would I have to buy a brand that's made by a Canadian company? That's what I'd like to know.

Hopefully, if that's the case, they won't press congress to bar Americans from buying digital equipment from Canada like they do with medicine. Hopefully, my hyperbole will remain that way.
