I only just found out about the Colbert Show like three months ago and it had become a favorite pastime for me every Saturday morning to watch all the episodes of both Colbert Report and the Daily Show for that week. I was planning to do so again today but found that the full episodes are now blocked from anyone outside of the U.S.
Here's the link to the thread on the Colbert Nation forum.

The first post is the one from the administration and says they "did so at the request of the content licensees who control the television broadcast rights to the show in those respective territories."
It seems to me like most of the posts on the Colbert Nation forum are just unhelpful complaining. But what do you guys think about this?
I for one am, of course, slightly bummed since I can't watch it on regular TV out here in Japan. But hey, if they don't have the money or the required license, I guess it can't be helped.
