Sounds interesting , thanks alot. We are just getting ready to reduce the cable and remove the netflix. Maybe this would be a good alternative, even after for $4.99 is fine.

We tried it last night and it works WOOT ..thanks!
Glad to hear it! I don't subscribe to cable anymore (got too expensive to pay for 500 channels when i watched about 5) and having access to all these websites comes in VERY handy.Quote:

what exactly are you downloading from them? can't i just change my dns and get access?
saving so I can find it :)
bookmarking
if you mean can you just change your DNS to something random and get access to US sites, then no you can't. You have to point your DNS to their servers.Quote:

A week later they will send you an email saying your trial is over and the sites will no longer work. So you can either sign up for 4.99/month to keep it working, or point your DNS servers back to rogers/bell/opendns or whoever else you use.
What do you need to do to watch chanels like ITV and BBC?? pay the $4.99 a month? or can I see that on the trial?
Thanks Bob :)
Nope, no need to pay, you will have full access on the trial.Quote:

After your change your DNS on your router, reboot the router so the settings are saved. Now you're done. Simply go to the site you want to watch TV shows on and it should allow you. If it doesn't then something was set up wrong.
Since you talked about UK shows.
Here are some links:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/
http://www.itv.com/itvplayer/
http://player.stv.tv/ (Scottish iTV)
