Some people use a free VPN but £3 p/m is pretty cheap for what you get and Unblockus is reliable, secure and very easy to change Netflix regions on.

Also, with some VPN's you are using their network and your speed can be greatly reduced. With Unblockus, you don't loose any broadband speed. It only works for sites they make it work with:

Personally I wouldn't trust a free VPN. Unblockus has been going for a good length of time, and gets recommended on most Netflix threads I view on various reputable forums, such as AVforums, AVSforums and Digital Spy.

If you cancel your Now TV subscription, you loose all access, just as you do on any other subscription service.

Good point; I was thinking of viewing via a PC rather than the Now TV box
