NHK on Youtube

[Mark R. Harris]

Thank you for the tip about Overplay.net! I had been looking for a reliable
VPN service, since I am living and teaching in South Korea, but want to have
access to Netflix streaming, Hulu, and other U.S.-only services. This is
even better, since I can switch temporarily and easily to servers in other
countries when I want access to restricted content from those places. The
features are what I need, and the price is right, so I just signed up. I am
grateful to you, sir.

Best regards,
Mark R. Harris
