I can't see how the addition of Brazil really matters. Either the Bush Administration gives up and permits most online gaming or the WTO will be rendered meaningless.
Unfortunately, I am afraid that the Bush Administration will choose the latter option. Thus, I am hoping that the court in the iMEGA case grants the relief requested and injoins the enforcement of the Wire Act and the UIGEA against internet gaming. |

Most of the other countries, including the EU, are not seeking market access for online gaming. They are just trying to get compensated for a commitment the US has made in their schedule and now wants to change. They see some money on the table and they want to get some of it.

Very true, but the pressure for unfavorable concessions by the US that will hurt US companies adds a new deminsion that Senators and Congress folks will take a lot of heat over at home.
Should help Antigua. PS, more legal / illegal U S Sports gaming info coming soon. May help the case to show how widespread football pools (even free) when cash is awarded by a large U S media outlet company including INTERSTATE contests. obg [ QUOTE ] Most of the other countries, including the EU, are not seeking market access for online gaming.

Sugar based ehtanol is effective, efficient, and cheap. Every corn farmer in america could end up on our side. |

They are claiming there are 7 seeking compensation, but their source doesn't sound totally legit, but they have Australia and Macao on it, with Japan just sending a nasty letter. Fits in with Jay's list, though I really am disappointed in Japan and Brazil. |

This article http://www.majorwager.com/frontline-521.html seems to have a more definitive list with Japan but not Brazil.
