Anybody else use netflix/apple tv?

I was just curious if anybody else used an apple tv for netflix and American TV.

I freaking love mine. The costs are something like $100 for a year of netflix, $100 for American IPs but what a deal when it comes down to it.

I like some Japanese TV, but there is only so much geinojin BS I can take.

If you hack your apple-tv (non computer people can figure it out) you can add a lot of American content like NBC, ESPN and some others, got hulu till last month and they blocked it for now, hopefully it will come back. They have some good content.

So does anybody else go through the crazy process of getting media from back home on their TV?

I tried to access netflix on my trip to Japan but viewing content was blocked. I assume thats what you use the American IP's for, but what do you do? Proxy through a server with the American IP or assign it directly to the machine your accessing from?
