P.S. Breaking Bad is an excellent program for anyone who hasnt seen it.

You can get The Inbetweeners on 4od for free can't you?

The US Netlix is amazing compared to our version!

Every episode of:

Breaking Bad
Rescue Me
Trailer Park Boys
King of The Hill
South Park
Married With Children
Frasier
Reno 911,and much more!

Plus much more up to date films,The Fighter,Jackass 3,Shutter Island etc.

I'll defo be paying the €10 for Netflix and Unblock US once the free trials are over.

Nope..

.. and HBO have stopped providing them with any new content.

Cazale · 17-01-2012 11:13PM

Some content available on the Irish Netflix is not available on the US version. An example I found is House of 1000 corpses.

rai555 · 17-01-2012 11:36PM

i know it's hard to tell, but which one you would prefer - blackVPN or unblock-us ?

we don't need polling but opinions would be greatly appreciated

No friends at all.
Desperate housewives, up to series seven.
Not into Columbo at all, (so excuse the innocence) but I only see a movie by that name, no TV series.

Hope that's some help lads.

The above site has full listings of the American site. Someone posted it another thread in the film forum so I can't take the credit for finding it. Great source though.

From what I have seen, what appears on the home menu is only a fraction of the content. The movies and tv show appearing seem to be based on prior show and movies watched. Do a search via the triangle on the PS3 to get some scale of the content particularly on the US site.

Dexter as well, on Irish version, not on US.

For me, even though I've only had it a week, unblock-us. I had black VPN for a year and although it was good, it did slow my connection down, also you had to switch between a UK VPN and a US VPN when you wanted to access that countries content.

Unblock-us hasn't slowed my connection at all and once you've changed the Dns settings, that's it. No switching VPNs on and off or switching from one to another.

Tbf, although they do the same thing for the purposes of Netflix, BBC iplayer etc. they aren't really the same thing.

Hi,

Wonder if someone can help me? What are the step by step instructions for setting up block-us on iPad?

Not sure which DNS to use. Have followed dns set up on their website for iPhone and not working.

Driving me mad!

Thanks!

First, make sure you signed up for the trial using your email address. Then pay attention to the important info... it works definitely!

http://portal.unblock-us.com/knowledgebase/46/Setting-up-iPhone.html

Important: You must have US or Canadian iTunes account to install Netflix on your iPad, iPhone or iPod. Hulu Plus and other US apps available only with US iTunes. BBC, ITV and 4oD apps available through UK iTunes account. Our DNS servers won't help you to setup these accounts, but you can find solution on the Internet. Just Google:us+itunes+account, etc.

Thanks for quick response!

But am being really silly here and still don't get it. Are you saying I need a US iTunes account? It was specifically stated in another thread that all you do is change your DNS and Netflix will change to US automatically?

Yeah, you need to set up a US iTunes account to download the apps themselves, then I think you can just use your regular account after that.

Go here: http://www.getusitunesaccount.com/

Just follow the instructions slowly and to the letter and you'll be done in 10 mins, max!

Just again for people as slow as me,

for Netflix on PS3 to get the American selection I/we should,

change the network settings on the PS3, get the unblock and then sign up to Netflix??

Pretty lost here

Doesn't matter when you sign up for Netflix or whether your Netflix account is in US or IRL . . Change the DNS settings on your PS3 per the US-unblock instructions, reboot your PS3, go into Netflix and you will see US selection.

No . . Netflix is now on the Irish iTunes site, if you have changed your DNS settings then your iPad will automatically access the US selection .. no need for a US iTunes account . .

However, if you get a US account you will also be able to download ABC player, Spotify, Pandora, which all work with US-unblock.

If you get a UK iTunes account (same process) you will be able to download BBC iPlayer, ITV player ..
