regions in the www
« on: September 25, 2011, 06:43:49 PM »
I am unable to watch TV from the UK or the USA because of my region in the world. I wonder why that is when you can read web pages from anywhere.

Update - I have found  (googled) I can pay for a proxy service for $12 a month for a UK proxy - I may give this a try once I get our internet switched over to unlimited use.

Found that series I was talking about here "Victorian Farm Christmas" looks like it is the second most popular documentary on the site - it is good to have a British ISP proxy  :)

The Victorian Farm series was excellent, but all that hard work - no dishwasher, no washing machine, no electric iron, no Sainsbury's down the road, no instant coffee!

I'm puzzled. How would that have been of any inconvenience to the menfolk?
