Yeah piracy is the way to go now days, so I hear from all the cool kids anyways

On another note, cops trying to be cheeky then you show them some back and they snap, stop harrassing decent drivers and go do something useful you fuckwits

Although I do regularly(Weekly) go to the movies & purchase music etc. I admit, that I still pirate profusely & refuse to support a business model that refuses to adapt & evolve with the speed of new technologies..

With the age of On Demand content, its time the TV & Film industry sits back & change there approach to the subject, much like the music industry had to with the likes of Napster..

"WHY DOES PIRACY KEEP HAPPENING IN AUSTRALIA???"

Offer Fairly Priced, On Demand, Non restrictive & Accessible Content from anywhere in the world & maybe myself & many others may come to the table.

tl;dr

Geo blocking for noobs

Can't believe I have to explain this to a man who hires hookers for hugs

I'm going to give Burke a run for his money if it kills me ... which considering I pay that karnt to be a karnt it probably will.

What sucks is not being able to stream some radio stations on TuneIn due to copyright issues. Are you serious?

I switched from unblock-us to getflix.com.au.

Roughly $2.50 a month and has Perth DNS server.

Unblock also has a Perth based DNS server - tried getflix when it first came out and was slow a bit too often. May have changed ... will trial again soon.

I also use a VPN when not at home. Won't stream HD video but good enough for my needs when on the go.

It's pretty simple Phizzler ... Do a quick google on UnblockUS or Getflix.

In short ... They use DNS (domain name servers - which convert a domain name to the apprOprIate IP address) servers to hide your location. So my router has it's DNS servers set to the UnblockUS addresses rather than the ISP ones. By being set to UnblockUS my computers behind my router seem to be in the US rather than AUS. This allows me to set up my Apple TV or IPads, as one example, to stream Netfix from the US or any other nation I choose by changing the settings at the UnblockUS site.

There are issues. When I google for example it defaults to US google. So I have a bookmark to the AUS one. Some forums also refuse to let me join as they won't allow a "proxy" as they think I'm trying to do something untoward.

In the end though, it gives me what I want such as digital AFL radio as the feed doesn't know I am in Perth and I can stream almost any free Internet TV FrOm around the world. BBC TV, netfLix, Hulu, etc.
