    As far as Netflix is concerned I can't be bothered to watch the shit they churn out for mass consumption.

    Same here. Most time I spend on Netflix is surfing for something to watch. I will not call it "shit", They cater to the larger market posible, after all they are a money making endeavour, and unfortunately my friend, age and the associated experience induced wisdom has removed us from that market.
    But don't forget the "shit" we wachend and enjoyed when we were young. I watch some of it now and wonder in disbelief how I could have enjoyed it. The truth of the matter is I am not the same person by any measurable metrics that I was then, Nothing that I was then really exists,even every cell in my body that existed then is dead and replaced. I guess the only thing of protoSteve that exists is my DNA and we are working on that LOL .
    Hmmm , Just has an Idea, and a source of more entertainment researching it. If a person underwent gene therapy, would it change their DNA identification markers in a criminal investigation to introduce reasonable doubt.?

Amazon video really don't like you using your account abroad and detect and block most VPNs. Shouldn't be an issue if you're moving to Thailand though, just change your address on Amazon.

    100% disagree; took me a day or 2 to set it up over 2 years ago,

    Kodi, using Mobdro, supremacy, placenta

    all the news, sports, tv shows and movies i will ever need.
    why pay when u can get it free???
    HD prime is only if u want someone to do everything for you.

    Left true vision ages ago, biggest rip off in Thailand..

    A day or two? And you don't consider that a pain? You must have a lot of spare time. I can get a worldwide OTT Streaming network re-provisioned in a tenth of that time.

    shouldnt do anything without a VPN.

    CyberGhost " i use"

    Hotspot Shield

    IP Vanish, very popular

    Zen Mate

    Nord "heard some bad things about this one

    Private vpn

    Surf Shark

    Pure vpn

    Safe vpn

    Express vpn

    I would look on the internet first. Some good offers at the moment.
    CyberGhost is £2:70 per month at the moment but you have to sign up for either 2 or 3 years, at those prices why care !

    You can have a dish installed in direction to AsiaSat7, with a small box that gives you AlJazeera, RT, DW (E+D), NHK (E) CNN, TV5 (French with most E subtitles, movie every night, no Hollywood).

    If movable to AsiaSat5 (or another fixed dish), there are few more news channels in E.

    All free + 1,000 Chinese, Indian, Arabic, ....

    Couldn't stand True and the invasive Thai-censorship crap (nudity, guns, cigarettes, ffs). Now I'm using an IPTV internet mag box provider (servers based outside Thailand) that supplies 100X more quality viewing (sports, new / classic films, series, etc) than I seem to have time to watch, tbh. Cost: 1,500 P/M. Switched from True a few years ago, and very happy with IPTV. You need a good (reliably-fast) internet fibre connection though. 3BB seems to work best where I live.

    I bet its the same guy I was using. The fucker who makes videos from hotel rooms?

    I'm fucking him off when my package runs out in a few weeks and have trialled a different guy which doesn't have such a large video club; which I can download anyway but all the TV channels are there and its only 3k a Year.

    Cheers to Headworx for that.

    I trialled it on the mag box that last guy gave me and its a lot more fluid than the fuckers too

    ^^^I don't know what you're getting 'for free', but for me 1,500Baht / month seems very good value.

    Dunno. Used to be an Oirish guy that was the contact man. Now its a woman answers all the emails. The servers were based in Phuket before they re-located a couple of years ago.

    How long have you got left, K?
    I'll PM whenever you want the email to a guy who will give you a free 12 hour trial and see what you think. Its got about 15% of the video club that the other guy I used has but all the TV channels are there.
    And for 3k a year youll wonder if you were ripped off spending 20k

    Is it a mag 322 box you have?

    There's two portals on that so you can put 2 IPTV providers on there, so you could put your trial on there and look and still have your existing package without wiping it
    Its a piece of piss to do.

    For movies and series I have Exodus, Megabox HD Lite, and Titanium TV. All free and if you can't find any movie or series ever made on them, it doesn't exist!.

    A must have app fir sports fans is Live Guide. Put any sport in there and it'll tell you what time it's on, and on which channels. Very handy!.

    Not sure if this still best route

    What do you use to see foreign films news and documentaries

    What is best paid VPN in Thailand with non buffering for UK, US and Oz tv?

    I have netflix and youtube on my set but some of the documentaries, sports I like are not there.

    Am happy to invest in yet anothe r"box " or VPN, streaming subscription.

    My wifi here in the Mts is too slow for HDD .

    TOT my provider seems to slow when it rains!

    I bought a cheap box off Lazada then used Harry's links from another thread. Seems to be lots of stuff on there but I only really use it for football.

    You get a free trial for HDPRIME, give it a go and see if it works for you. Nothing to lose.
