Pearl Jam Video “Life Wasted”

From the Google Blog:

“Pearl Jam’s new music video “Life Wasted” is now on Google Video for free! Be sure to check it out now, as free streaming and download is available only until next Wednesday.

And in line with the band’s experimental personality, Pearl Jam released the “Life Wasted” video under a Creative Commons “some rights reserved” copyright license. What does all that legal gibberish mean to you? It means that you can download the video for free, share it with your friends, and even post it on your own site–provided you give the band credit and don’t use it for commercial purposes. It’s yet another example of Pearl Jam putting its fans first.”

Except since I’m in the hinterland of Canada, all I see when I go the link is a big “We’re sorry, but the provider of this video has not authorized Google to display this video in your location.” Which is strange, because I thought it was released under a CC license.

Can someone upload this to YouTube for me?

    Hey, when I click your link it doesn’t work, but if I do a search on Google Vid, it finds and plays the video ok.
