Geo blocking has never been a real obstacle...

Try using Spotify registered in the EU

Never going to use Spotify. Prefer to own the physical media and have it digitalized as FLAC. iPod 5th gen with rockbox. Stick the finger to all Spotifys.

Well you won't encounter geo-blocks, it doesn't mean they don't exist though.
