Can you still access them with VPN?

[–] icedterminal@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Amazon actively blocks VPNs when using their Video or Music services. They also do a DNS check. It's a game of whack-a-mole. Your VPN provider has an IP that works, 24 hours later Amazon have it on the VPN blacklist.

Didn't try, but I imagine it could work. But more effort than I'm ready to put in to watch movies I paid for. I now stopped buying digital movies completely. Not worth it.
