Was looking for a way to get a HD stream of the Vikings game each week, Sunday Ticket was too expensive and I hate to subsidize the monopoly they have. Came across a post talking about using a VPN to purchase GamePass directly from the NFL. See, outside the USA, there is no exclusive DirecTV deal. Anyways, the post basically said just use a VPN to put yourself in a different country, sign up for GamePass, and then you can watch the games via that all season. You do have to reconnect to the VPN to launch the service, but then can disconnect and use your internet connection without the speed restrictions of using a VPN.

If anyone decides to look into this, you can get 15% off with the code "Rep15" and another few bucks off if you pay with Swedish Kroner rather than USD (assuming you don't have any crazy foreign currency fees). (I get nothing, just passing this along)

Step 1: Install the Hola Better Internet[1] Chrome extension.Step 2: Go to the NFL Game Pass[2] website.
Step 3: Change your location through Hola to Romania. Sometimes it has trouble connecting so just keep refreshing and trying. The page should change to allow you to purchase Game Pass. Romania gave me the best price at $129.99 for all of the preseason/regular season (not playoffs or Super Bowl). (Prague also works, with the same price.)
Step 4: Put in your actual information and credit card. Doesn't matter if your billing address is US.
Step 5 Launch it!
Just did this an hour ago for the first time. I thought I'd have to use a VPN or something to trick the NFL's website into letting me login to Game Pass but now that my purchase went through I'm able to log right in with no tricks and watching a beautiful HD stream of the NFL Network right now with full speed.
Thoughts? Risk? Should I be worried about the NFL somehow pulling the plug on this midseason?
