Corey,

It's possible to use a commercial vendor for VPN protection without 
purchasing (and maintaining) a VPN server.  I've been using a VPN 
service for a while now.  DuckDuckGo (a search company) did a blog 
article about VPNs last fall, though there are many articles about VPN 
service available on "the web."  Among other things, by using a VPN 
server located in the U.K., for example, media streams that would 
normally be blocked to computers with IP addresses in the U.S. are 
available to me.

See: "How to Choose a Good VPN"
