A VPN (or Virtual Private Network) is a secure connection between two or more computers as though it was a private network between physically-linked computers. The computer connects to the internet via the virtual network, often through proxy servers. These proxy servers are often at different geographical locations, or appear to be, further masking the origin of the connection.

The word is spreading about Smart TV Boxes, versatile Android devices that are the next evolution in home entertainment. While many people have happily jumped in and transformed their TV and movie experience, many remain on the fence or are otherwise convinced a Smart TV Box isn’t for them. This couldn’t be farther from the truth. 

Smart TV Boxes are getting more and more popular, that is a fact. People may still be very sceptical: How do they work? Can they continue to give such great content? We believe the answer to this is a very big YES Internet TV is here to stay and will get better and better as time goes by. If Apple is investing in Internet TV there must be something in it.

More now than ever, people are taking the power into their own hands, embracing new technology to stay entertained. Individuals can save countless hours by choosing to watch what they want, when they want, rather than rely on service providers and network schedules to choose their entertainment for them.

I named this article the pros and cons of buying an MXQ Smart TV Box, but after spending about 15 minutes thinking of the pros I really cannot come up with one good reason. You could say price but really that is only a false economy: as the saying goes “buy cheap buy twice”. 

In our last blog we talked about buying a box from the right sources. In this post, we’ll discuss the costs versus quality of Smart TV Boxes.
