They are impossible to get in other countries (apart from Canada, which has apparently just started showing HBO as an option on some packages). Other countries' networks or cable stations have to buy them and show them themselves. With AGoT it's less of a problem because the BBC are co-funding it, so BBC-1 will show it in the UK within a few weeks of the USA airing.
