Review from Lee on HideMyAss!
It works, that much I must admit. But it is slow to the point that it is worthless. I am an American on assignment in Japan for 3 years. I wanted to be able to keep my Netflix account and be able to watch the things I’m accustomed to online in the states. Per my handy dandy CNET test seconds ago, w/o HMA, I’m running at a whopping 41872 kbps. On HMA, I’m at an abysmal 561 kpbs. It shows in the quality videos I receive and constant buffering. Sometimes I find the quality isn’t bad, but it’s more of 75% worthless, 25% good. The price is too high considering that I’m getting satellite quality coverage here, but I paid for 1 year, so I’ll use it when I’m bored. I plan on sucking it up, buying AppleTV and get my shows that way. If you can afford it and you want a product better than the odds you get from praying to the sun, don’t bother.
