Can such device watch those Taiwan variety shows and HK/Korean dramas?

That's what I want to know:confused:

Except that my interest is more on the english channels like CBS, ABC, CNN, etc. I'm really fed up with the crap & propaganda that media corp forces us to watch. I'm looking for alternatives.

I've taken a look at Celestial Movie i.e. Shaw, and to be honest plenty of Shaw movies are I think amateurish & would appeal only to uncles who miss the good old days:smile:

There are of course a few gems in the collection e.g. The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, Return to the 36th Chamber etc,.... Many of the Celestial collection are available only as video CD & not DVDs or Blueray. They are also cheap, usually around $10.

Funshion and todou also can use Engish to search and download. But for those why doesnt understand or read Chinese, may not enjoy as much.

I find our Mediacorp has very good English and Chinese programmes. And they have re-runs after re-runs also. So dont have to worry in case u missed it.

DownLoad from movie sites to externaL hd, and pLay them through a Media pLayer Like WD, which i am using, then
connect it to whatever size of TV you want..but make sure that the Media pLayer supports the movies' format.

use a China proxy and download via IDM for those restricted videos.

Thanks. Just found out how to use china proxy and IDM from google:

"To connect china proxy you need to setup your browser for surfing via proxy server. But first you need a proxy server address (Proxy IP) you may find a list of proxies on the top of this page pick a server address you need. Now you need to configure the web browser using proxy, do follow steps for;

Google Chrome
Go preferences -> options -> choose tab "Under the Hood" navigate to "Netwoork" open "Change proxy settings" -> open "Settings" -> tick a box for "use a proxy server for this connection", now give the proxy address picked from the list into the form, give the port number, "Ok". "
