VPN is a Virtual Private Network.

You can use a VPN setup for many things.

* You can, for example. get on your work network from home and have the same opportunities as you have at work.
* You can also use a VPN to test things at work but from a different network (to see if it works from the outside)
* Or you can use a VPN to access services which can not normally be accessed from the country you live. then you can with a VPN in Denmark come in and watch TV on DR.DK even if you're in another country with a VPN in England, you can register with the Spotify even when you are in Denmark. You can also use a service like hulu.com that requires you are on via an IP from the U.S..
* It can also be you have seen a video on youtube not to be shown in Denmark because of some rights. That you will be able to circumvent by using a VPN from another country where it is ok.

However, it is important to say that there is a reason that you can not access these services from each country, and one must therefore assume that it is illegal to "mis" use a VPN to access such services .

Nevertheless, Nicholas Sonne from So Ein Ding even shown how this can be used to watch TV from dr.dk though he is in DK

If you are going to use a VPN, where you can freely switch between several different countries, then I would definitely recommend overplay.net . I use it myself at work to check whether I can access services that should be protected or similar.

overplay.net have a really good speed for the 31 countries they offer you can connect up to, and they have some really good guides on how to set it to both the phones mac and pc.
I've been wearing them for a little over 3 months and they have always been rock stable.

Prices start from $ 9.95 a month, but it gets cheaper the more months you buy at a time eg. it costs 12 months only $ 99.95, which is a good besparrelse.
