I used to do that. Eventually I got tired of paying $200 just to be partially legal when the reddit streams are just as good. [Reply]

$200? That seems high. There are plenty of good VPN's out there for less. I have ExpressVPN. It's fast, and has a good reputation. I pay $99/ year. [Reply]

I think DTV moves between scoring plays quicker. [Reply]

Really? What did they want?
I was surprised how little they wanted when I signed up last year.
On the Web site, I entered a valid student name, date of birth, and university. Didn't need a university email. I even paid with a credit card in my name not the student's. Made me think that they weren't trying to enforce it very rigorously and was happy to take my $100. [Reply]

The website I was on wanted name school and email. Then the next page it said I needed to upload a student id, or my class schedule or transcript! [Reply]

The $200 estimate is including the subscription to Game Pass. You can get a decent VPN for far less than $99. [Reply]

I didn't have to do anything like that last year.
A transcript would be hard to fake. Seems like a class schedule wouldn't be that hard to fake. Or even photo shopping a student ID. I wonder if they can automatically cross reference that with the school.
I found it mildly disturbing that it only took a date of birth and name to determine if you were a current student.
A young employee at my office who had recently been a student tried and was rejected so it appeared there was some sort of verification from the school.
I wonder if it depends on the school? These were large, university of California, schools.
I may instead try to hit up co workers that live in apartments that can't get satellite. [Reply]
