$40 US per year, or $70 for 2 years. They have apps for Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android, and have servers around the world including 3 in Canada (Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal). I use it to watch DirectTV NOW on my Nvidia Shield box and it works great. They also have browser extensions for Firefox and Chrome so you can run only a browser window through VPN while the rest of your traffic stays local

It's become such second nature for me to fire it up if I run into any kind of geo-blocking stuff that I forget it's even an issue. PIA is also fast at updating their servers if they start getting blocked, they're one of the only VPN's I'm aware of that still works for getting US Netflix for example
