It looks like you can`t surf "http://grooveshark.com/" if you use the german servers. 

 

"Due disproportionately high operating costs

Grooveshark is not longer accessible from Germany." [1]

Nobody else out there who has the same issue? Is there a possibility to change the routing?

​Grooveshark closed it's service in Germany in early 2012. What I remember are rumors: It might be the german copyright collective's fault (GEMA) who raised costs so that Grooveshark Germany couldn't pay this. It's a rumor because Grooveshark still exists in other countries. I personally think GEMA came up with exaggerated offers so that Grooveshark decided to stop it's service to not make it a money-losing business in Germany. Which also is the problem with YouTube and why especially music tracks are blocked in here.
