JudyS Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 (edited) Netflix wants to stop their service at the border. If you use a proxy or VPN to stream the U.S. version of Netflix, you won't be able to do it any more, if they are successful. They might fail at the attempt, but they are trying. http://www.stuff.co.nz/technology/75920775/netflix-shutting-off-proxy-access-to-us-version This is probably a good time to check out IPTV with its thousands of movies and TV shows as well as live TV.

Dottie Atwater Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 I quit Netflix long ago. There are many, many excellent free movies on youtube. I download them using Internet Download Manager. Many are in HD, but even if not, the quality is acceptable. I don't have TV, I just watch movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSailors Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 We use Unlocator. It is a US based proxy. Their service is excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlocator and other proxies are what Netflix wants to stop. There is speculation that they are going to have a hard time doing this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoSailors Posted January 15, 2016 Share Posted January 15, 2016 Netfix should be happy with the PAID subscribers they have, regardless of which country their service is viewed from! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JudyS Posted January 16, 2016 Author Share Posted January 16, 2016 It has something to do with licensing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PenRip Posted January 16, 2016 Share Posted January 16, 2016 I'm gathering names for those who are interested in DishNetwork here in Panama. Go to http://www.usatvsatfrompanama.com/ to learn about this. I am in touch with Alberto there and when I have a list of names of those interested, I'll get with him to organize installations. Better to give him a big list to make coming to Boquete worth his time, rather than one of us at a time. Let me know if you are interested in this. chiriquiwoman@gmail.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
