We didn't set the timer on the Bell ExpressVu PVR in time and subsequently missed the first episode. No problem, we thought. We'll just use the media server PC and watch directly from CTV (the Canadian Television Network) as they are the show's distributors here. We fired up the browser and when we tried to watch we were asked which service provider we used. It couldn't be skipped. Therefore, I had to go to the PC and figure out my Bell.ca logon. Even after entering and being 'accepted', we were given a warning that we'd not set up something or other for authorized viewing. Networks really don't get it, do they?
I promptly logged into a VPN. Now my IP appears to be somewhere in California. I am watching via the United States CBS website.
Oh media conglomerates, you are dinosaurs and I cannot wait until you are dead!
