Censored Internet Videos

I was just on the BBC website to see an article about non-trained people assembling "flat pack" bicycles in the UK.  There's a video at the top of the post and I cannot watch it because it is "Not available in your area"...what kind of bollocks is that?  This is the internet?  If I can see the text and comments from other readers, why can't the same 0s and 1s turn into a video on my bloody screen? 

I've encountered similar problems trying to watch spanish language videos from Mexico.  Seriously, I want to watch.  What difference does it make that I'm not in Mexico or the UK?
