NGage22R is on a distinguished road
Default Marketplace has dissappeared!
Hey guys.
When I updated the Zune software recently, and signed in, I realized that the Marketplace tab had disappeared. I was wondering if anybody could help me get the Marketplace back,because now I can't download any new podcasts, etc.
I live in Canada, but before the update everything worked fine. I've heard that the Marketplace wasn't available in Canada, but then why was it working before?
Is there a known way to glitch the Marketplace? Because if there is, please let me know so I can try and get it back.

Please help!

No issues for me (US user). It's possible that MS wasn't scanning for IP's before, and now they are. It would explain why the software was working, but the Markertplace is now missing.

I don't think it's a glitch - it sounds like MS is doing this purposely.

I can access the Marketplace just fine. They are not checking IPs. To get the Marketplace to show up, you have to use a U.S. Windows Live ID and have your computer's region set to the United States.

If your Live account is set to Canada then there is no way to access the marketplace unless you make a second live account set for the USA and your computer location is set for the US.
