Anyone who wishes to access geo-locked content from an IP outside the authorized area will need to use something - be that a VPN or some other variant of a proxy service.
Those fortunate enough to have an US based IP as part of their internet package have an easier time than those who do not.

I am looking to see what service is working the best, like Express VPN as an example...

I have been using express VPN for 2 years. Mainly for Torrents. I highly recommend it.

I have been using this for years.. Works great, price for a year $40, does not slow down anything. You can be anywhere in the World you like. But I do not use it for streaming Amazon or Netflix, so I cannot comment on that. I use it for any blocked sites according to Countries, and it works like a charm. Also you can use it on your phone also for the same price.

We use smartdnsproxy We get both smart dns and VPN, but to access US tv, netflix, hulu, etc., you only need to use the smart dns. We seldom use the VPN when needed for website that are not included with the smart dns. Have been using this smartdnsproxy.com server for many years now.

Ditto, smartdns. I also integrate SDNS with no-ip so I don't have to keep refreshing the SDNS proxy when it changes. Once no-ip registers a SDNS IP, when SDNS changes, no-ip does, too. But like a junk mail filter, it has to be trained.We use smartdnsproxy We get both smart dns and VPN, but to access US tv, netflix, hulu, etc., you only need to use the smart dns.

I've used this successfully with Hulu.
That said, many content distributors are savvy about VPS, and will block content streamed to them. It's not unlike the "cat and mouse" of the old FTA systems.

Express VPN has been working well for me. Works as an app on my Amazon Fire TV, giving me all content on Netflix, AMazon, Hulu, BBC etc. Can be configured to change countries to access the different content given by geolocation. Doesn't seem to slow it down either.

Yea let's publish all of our VPNs so Amazon and whoever else can block them all.
Great idiotic idea.
Yea, Amazon isn't reading DR1 but you never know. Its public information. Interweeb tentacles are endless and long.

Yeah right because Amazon, Netflix Hulu et al don’t want customers paying for their content. Are customers with VPNs actually getting something for free? No they’re not. They’re paying for a subscription and paying to use a VPN to access it.
It just some stupid geo blocked copyright law invented by greedy lawyers. The streaming services make some sort of attempts to block them knowing full well there are work arounds.

As you mention, the issue for streamers is all their content is contracted with geographic restrictions. For instance, Hulu may want you/a group of offshore users to pay, but a series they offer is contracted with "licensed only in the US and Canada." If that license is breached, there can be severe financial civil consequences that far outweigh their desire to have a customer in the DR.Yeah right because Amazon, Netflix Hulu et al don’t want customers paying for their content.
