UK user trying to access the US Playstation Store

I am in the UK but I'd really like to download some demos of games that are US only releases (baseball, football etc.) and are not available on the UK.

I read on here that I could create a new account with US details and I could get access, so I did.

However, when I tried to sign in on my PS3, I got a message saying:

'You cannot sign in using another user's sign-in ID (email address)'

What does this mean (aside from the obvious)? Is there anyway around this? If not does anyone know if there is anywhere I can download said content on the web then transfer it to my PS3?

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi Mate,

Did you create a new local account on your PS3 to use with the US PSN account?
