So what does this mean to you? Well, if you have an account that matches
the country where you are located, then you will probably notice little to
no difference. However, if you have set up an account that does not match
the country where you are located, you will find that these new security
measures will only allow you to purchase and download content that is
licensed in the country where you are located. For example, if you are not
located in the US, but have created a US Xbox LIVE account, you will not be
able to download TV shows and movies that are currently available for use
only in the US.
