I used to use Pandora's free online streaming music service, and I liked the way I could "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" songs to indicate my preferences in music, and explore related artists. I bought many CDs after being introduced to new artists via Pandora. However, some years ago, Pandora shut down access to Canadians. (Boo!)
I was in the U.S. recently and was able to log in to my old account from the hotel room. I realized I miss Pandora quite a bit. What's the easiest way to work around the restrictions that Pandora put in place? I promise to support new artists I like and discovered via Pandora.

Well, what you want to do is proxy your requests through a server in the US. The best way to do this is probably to sign up at TunnelBroker and set it up on your computer as a VPN.
You can find instructions on how to do this on Windows 7 and Mac OS X.
