TechRadar Guide Explains How Prime Video Subscribers Abroad Can Reach Their Home Catalogue
TechRadar explains how Prime Video subscribers abroad can use a VPN to reach their home catalogue, which differs by country.
According to TechRadar, downloading a VPN allows viewers to bypass those regional restrictions and stream the library they normally use at home. The publication, which says it regularly reviews VPN providers, names NordVPN as its top-rated choice and lists a current promotion of 75 percent off with three additional months free. The guide is a how-to piece rather than a news report, and its recommendation of a specific paid service reflects TechRadar's own testing and commercial presentation.
The service carries films, television series and live sport. TechRadar lists classic films including The Green Mile, Goodfellas, Before Sunrise, Pulp Fiction, The Hangover, Notting Hill and Rain Man, alongside newer releases such as The Drama, Obsession, Disclosure Day, Weapons, Evil Dead Burn and Michael. Some titles arrive first as rentals before joining the subscription library. Television programming includes Amazon Originals and regional productions, with Reacher, The Summer I Turned Pretty, Fallout, Off Campus and Fleabag among the titles the guide identifies as currently popular. Apple TV can be added to a Prime subscription, giving access to series such as Ted Lasso, Pluribus, Shrinking, Severance and The Studio.
Sports rights also vary by market. The guide says Prime Video carries Champions League and Premier League football, golf, tennis, cricket, NFL and UFC, while noting that the exact competitions available depend on where the viewer is located. Live television and linear channels are offered in selected markets only.
Watching the service requires an Amazon account, signed in either through the Prime Video website or the app on a phone, tablet, computer or smart TV. A Prime membership includes Prime Video; viewers without one can subscribe through Amazon at 8.99 US dollars a month in the United States, 8.99 pounds in Britain, 9.99 Australian dollars in Australia and 9.99 Canadian dollars in Canada, according to the guide.
Supported hardware listed by TechRadar includes Amazon's Fire TV Sticks and Cubes, Fire TVs and Fire tablets, Android devices, Chromecast, Comcast X1, Roku devices, Nvidia Shield, Apple TV 4K and Apple TV HD, iPhones and iPads, Windows 10 and Windows 11 apps, the macOS app for version 11.4 and above, smart televisions from LG, Panasonic, Samsung and Sony, and Sony PlayStation consoles.
