Yeah I'm not entierly sure what the point of that section is but my guess is that people from a given nationality are going to have a certain vantage point?
Also, given that it comes first its to eliminate some things. Despite what you'd read on these boards, many American's aren't familiar with the shows they watch in the UK. So it may be weeding things out like that.
But with music, Canada for example had been far more in line with Britain than the states have. My understanding is Oasis gets as much play up there as they do back home, while their more recent stuff sees mostly rock radio appeal in the states.
I don't know that "thinking canadian" eliminates American things though...
And don't beat up on yourselves. You gave us Nickleback too.
