OverPlay

Many broadcasting companies now provide TV shows over the Internet but you’re unable to watch most of them unless you live in their country of origin.  For example, you can’t watch Hulu unless you live in the United States, you can’t watch BBC iPlayer unless you live in the United Kingdom and you can’t use the RTE Player unless you live in Ireland.

Fortunately that’s no longer a problem thanks to a solution from OverPlay.  Using OverPlay you can have access to TV shows from the UK, US, Ireland, Canada, Switzerland, and Sweden and that list keeps getting bigger.  OverPlay provide a VPN service with one or more servers in several countries.  The current price at the time of writing is $9.95 (USD) a month and that single price gives you access to ALL of those servers.

Not only that but there are no bandwidth limitations so you can watch as much as you like.  They also provide their own software so it’s easy to set up and use, however you can use your own PPTP and OpenVPN diallers if you want that flexibility.

The other advantage to using a good VPN service is that they provide a good level of anonymity.  With governments taking an increasing interest in their citizens’ Internet activities and in some cases filtering content that they don’t like, they can be a good way of accessing the true, uncensored Internet.
