I use sshuttle[1] to a Linodes hosted in Newark to access Hulu and
U.S. Netflix (a larger catalogue than the Canadian one) and one hosted
in London (U.K.) to get access to iPlayer and Spotify.

But you can be super cool if you use a Tor[2] Proxy to a U.S. based
end (or maybe exit) node.

The only issue is that you would have to remember to turn it off or
your Internet speeds will be negatively affected.

I just use my old MacBook Pro. I find using the MythTV, Plex, etc. to
be to cumbersome.
