Do they also supply you information on the IP addresses from where those emails are opened? I would have to assume they could have a good idea of where the “readership” is. Do they tell you that too?

I would assume that your readership (and the value gotten from that) is less heavily dependent upon US users than OMAAT.
I have the location data but it is based on where the initial sign-up was done from rather than where any particular email was read. Annoyingly it isn't aggregated anywhere (I think) so I don't actually know what the split is overall. Website traffic is 80% UK, 10% US and dribs and drabs from elsewhere. You also see what device emails are usually read on, click through rates and indeed exactly which emails a person opened. Not that I spend a single second actually looking at any of this info!
