This isn’t exactly piracy, as I intend to pay, but I’m wondering how I can use a VPN to get a cheap Deezer subscription.

I’m trying to use TunnelBear with an Argentine IP to get a very cheap Deezer subscription, but I keep getting an error when I try, and I think it might be because the credit card I’m using is not from Argentina.

Is there a way around this? If not, do any other music streaming services allow you to use a VPN for foreign pricing rates?

    That would break the terms and conditions listed on Deezer’s website, giving it the right to terminate your account at any time without notice. Personally I don’t really get why you would give your money to a company in this scenario. Pay for it properly or pirate.

      Yeah I think this is about convenience right? Pirating is more work than scrolling through an interface.

        It depends how experienced you are and whether you have a system in place that works for you. I would say piracy is very convenient if you know what you’re doing.

          I agree it can get very convenient. You could get the *arr suite of apps running with Ombi and never have to touch a browser to find stuff. The *arr suite fail to find things pretty often though (see: downloading singular seasons of old shows) and I can see why someone just doesn’t want to deal with all that.
