Using a VPN when overseas

Hi..For those who want to see/hear games overseas on business trips, etc, but have issues because ESPN,Netflix, etc block foreign IPs. This past weekend I was in Tokyo and used a VPN on my iPad called ExpressVPN. There are other VPN's out there, but this one worked fine. Connected to the VPN, opened the WatchESPN app and was able to watch the game. Very cool. Hopefully I won't have issues with the CBS sports app when trying to watch the bama game in a few weeks.
