I like Dr. Pepper, but not their website

pyesetzThe Chinese Democracy album from Guns 'N' Roses is like the Duke Nukem Forever game: it's been vaporware for so long that the release date is a joke synonymous with "when Hell freezes over/pigs fly". In March, Dr. Pepper said they'd give out free soda-pop to everyone in America if Axl Rose finished the thing this year. Well, it went on sale today, so Dr. Pepper has a website where you can sign up for your free drink.
I will not sign up. The website has three strikes against it:
1) They say they're offering the free product to "every American" (that's me), but actually it's for US addresses only (not me). I suppose this is reasonable by American standards of isolationism, but I would have to have the coupon sent to my brother-in-law's house.
2) and 3) By signing up you agree to their Privacy Policy and their Terms of Use, but both of the referenced documents give 404 errors. I do not agree to terms that will be selected later!
