How could I trick Messenger to thing I’m in the US so I can use the built in music player instead of having to get launchcast through IE?

I guess you would have to change your zip code…but then that goes into what happens if some one steals your ID and you have to reproduce the information? It used to be that one could just download it from the US site and get that version…has this changed?
