Unotelly is a good service. It's what I use.
The problem is the archaic way in which content licensing is handled. It doesn't reflect a globalized society, limits consumer choice, and encourages piracy. Which is why copyright laws need to be updated to reflect these changes. Unfortunately, they only seem to be going in a more anti-consumer direction. Content providers trying to put the internet genie back in the bottle.
It's long been a huge issue here in Canada. That's why a lot of people pay for DNS/VPN services to watch US content. Netflix here pales in comparison. There's also the Canadian content laws to contend with as well, which the CRTC was wanting to push on the web as well. Which prompted Netflix to drop the mic on them late last year. Those laws made sense during broadcast days, to ensure Canadian artists were getting airplay. Yet it doesn't make much sense in the age of Soundcloud, YouTube, etc that make it easy for startup Canadian content creators to reach a global audience. Plus the existing film and video game industries, which are booming.
