VPN Connection Allows Cyprus & Middle East Expats to Finally Watch US & UK TV Online Via Internet TV

With an ever-expanding expat community in Europe and the Middle East, internet TV channels via VPN connections offered online - now with the launch of whatsonthebox.net - provide long-awaited relief and comfort to UK & US nationals abroad. Internet TV channels broadcast by BBC, Fox, CBS, NBC, ITV, Five, and more allow expats to watch their favourite TV shows on demand and allay the feeling of alienation that so many suffer whilst abroad.

Limassol, Cyprus (PRWEB) September 28, 2009 -- US & UK TV on demand online is now available to the expat community located in the Mediterranean and Middle Eastern countries such as Cyprus, Dubai and Qatar with the launch of a new website: www.whatsonthebox.net. Affordable, safe, and secure, using an encrypted internet connection, whatsonthebox is bringing thousands of viewers their favourite series such as Coronation Street, Eastenders, Desperate Housewives, The Apprentice, Heroes, Prison Break, and LOST for just €10.00 per month on a 3-month contract. Alternatively, the same VPN connection can be subscribed to on a month-by-month basis for €12.00 per month.

The VPN connection, which stands for Virtual Private Network is not restricted with the TV channels it can receive from its UK & US broadcasters, among them BBC, ITV, C4, Five, Fox, ABC, NBC, and CBS. Soap operas and drama series, movies and other entertainment channels (including those for children), sports channels, documentaries, TV reality shows, talk shows, comedies, and broadcast news channels are among the selection available.

In addition, a Whatsonthebox internet TV channels subscription also allows access to Canadian TV.

For Middle Eastern subscribers, internet TV is not the only reason for subscribing, as under normal circumstances, heavy restrictions on access to youtube videos and certain websites apply. The advantage of the VPN connection is then also that the subscriber's IP address remains concealed.

In Cyprus, where the cost of satellite subscriptions is already regarded as high for the range of TV channels provided, the vast selection of programmes offered by Whatsonthebox has meant an instantaneous rush for the VPN connection service.

Although aimed primarily at expats within the Cyprus and the Middle Eastern region, the new VPN Connection is not restricted to expats abroad or residents' geographical location: internet TV subscribers can be residing in any country worldwide to take advantage of the facility. In addition, it takes just four hours to get an account and there is no obligation to continue subscribing after the first month.
