Yeah baby! Sniped that Dung.

Gamecenter is now on XBOX Live.

BTW since I am able to watch all the Sens games it seems from last year, does it mean I will be able to this year?
Or do the IP address only start to be effective on gameday?

I would susspect your IP adress would go into effect but if you feel like trying one of those IP redirectors and seeing if you can watch all the games you'd be doing me a favor for next year.

I'm gonna subscribe to unblock-us (VPN) soon, If only to get Netflix US.

A lot of people on HFBoards use VPNs and say they get all the games. And they are in Ottawa. It gives you an US IP Address.

The more common spelling is "TOMORROW".

The local blackout is for live games. Old games are not under those restrictions.

HUGE difference in Netflix US vs Canada. Well worth the additional $5.

Does that work on a router or console (xbox, ps3, apple tv)?

Router yes. Console...I assume no but you can look into it.

6 years, 5 million per year for Edler. Amazing deal for the Canucks! Damn...

I have a feeling the answer is no. I have tried hotspot before and it didn't work for me, but maybe they keep changing and adapting. But I believe hostpot creates a VPN, and that's going to affect your streaming performance. Ublock-us does things differently. I don't really understand it all, but from what I'd read, it only comes into play at the verification phase when Netflix determines your location. After that the content is streamed to you directly, and not through a VPN service. It may or may not make a difference depending on your access speed and route to the source.

The answer is indeed no. This is an OS-only solution. From their website:

https://hsselite.zendesk.com/entries/21538528-can-i-use-hotspot-shield-with-router-ps3-wii-xbox-boxee-etc

That would work if you only want to watch Netflix via a laptop or computer.

Yeah it won't work on consoles but if you want to try netflix USA its very easy to try on your computers. I forget you guys are using consoles, I built an htpc and use xbmc on my tv.
