That would be impossible. The evil harmony gold will not allow any new Macross anime, manga, and games to be licensed out side of Japan.
If ANN gets the rights to stream Macross F and 7. I'll buy 2 years of ANN premium.

Technically, the reality is that Harmony Gold (who owns "Macross" trademark in North America), according to Tommy Yune, did at one time express interest in bringing more "Macross" Anime (incl. "Macross Zero") into North America except that it was Big West's decision to block North American companies from getting their hands on anymore "Macross" Anime. If you don't believe me, read the forum thread "Offical Response received from Bandai USA on Macross Frontier" at robotech.com.

I don't think it's a matter of believing you, as much as accepting only one side of the story--the word of a Harmony Gold staff member on Harmony Gold's website. Two years before Macross Zero, Harmony Gold blocked new Macross releases from coming to North America unless they got a piece of the action--even if they had nothing to do with those releases. It was Bandai USA that tried to release a Japanese Macross game in North America before Harmony Gold blocked it and asked for a cut. There's nothing technical about it.
