Regarding (a) I mentioned in my earlier comment that I understood not all of these services were available in all countries. However they are available in a lot of them now. Netflix and iTunes are both available in over 50 countries (I believe it's much higher for iTunes but I can't find the specific figure right now). As for (b) I don't think that's an insanely specific demand and don't believe I said it was. In fact I listed a few of the demands in my comment. However it's also not a good justification for piracy imo. The content is still available to you with (for most people) very little effort.
