I think it's the other way around.

In Australia we call it "soft drink"
i guess that has something to do with the bubbles or the CO2 content?

In Finland they don't call them "diet" sodas, they're "light" sodas.
And that's exactly how they taste - bland.

"pop" is used in the Great Lakes region, on both the US and Canadian side. "soda" is used everywhere else in North America.

P.S. it's pop

I run a 'good amount' too. I love diet coke and YES it does taste better, regardless of what you people say.

I try to limit my intake, the problem with caffeinated drinks is that they dehydrate your body. Drinking water and juice IS healthier indeed.

I HATE regular soda.

in the end, it is your choice to 'pick your poison'...

It's pop here as well. I never had any problems with this until I went to Arizona and asked for pop. They just looked at me like "wtf?!?" So I just started asking for soft drinks...soda sounds too weird.
