mtv.com & vh1.com for people outside the US (how to overcome geo restrictions)?

[baracus22]

is it possible somehow maybe with the right program to capture videos from the abovementioned even if you're not in the US ?

i don't know exactly how they check my status but maybe i could set up a 2nd system with an US-version of windows XP - proxy server is mostly troublesome but i don't know if necessary in this case

You can try

• Free US proxy servers
• A web (based) proxy (like peaksurf.info)
• Other MTV web-sites. Say, mtv.ca doesn't seem to have any regional restriction.

See the following thread for more:

I know this is an extremely old question but it still relates to alot of people so i'll show you how to bypass MTV restrictions:

This let's anybody stream outside of US on MTV without a proxy, just by using simple firefox techniques.
