There is a world of great content out there. You can think of Getflix as your passport.

Frequent travelers who enjoy quality TV time have likely encountered the struggle of missing your favorite show due to regional restrictions. Getflix is a service that instantly unblocks over 100 video and audio streaming channels on all your devices with a quick change of settings. Even better: It’s currently 93% off in the Daily Dot store.

Just like a regular VPN, Getflix routes your traffic through overseas servers in order to disguise your location. There are 50 nodes to choose from, meaning you can “pop up” wherever you want to view content.

The connection is fast and unlimited, giving you full access to the likes of iPlayer, Hulu, ESPN, HBO GO, PBS, and more. It works with virtually any Internet-connected device that has custom DNS options, including PC, Mac, iOS, Android, Apple TV, and all major home gaming consoles. You can check out the full list of compatible devices here.

By default, the service uses smart DNS, meaning that your connection is only rerouted when you want to view restricted content. That said, you can enable full VPN protection with 256-bit encryption at no extra cost.

For a limited time, you can pick up a Getflix lifetime subscription for $59 through the Daily Dot Store. You save 93 percent, making this a pretty sweet deal for anyone who enjoys quality TV time.
