How to buy and download Amazon instant videos in Nigeria

When it comes to digital movies ready for download or streaming, Amazon has a lot of them in their store.

Sure you can buy a lot of dvds and vcds from this large retail website and ship to Nigeria but it can be almost impossible when it has to do with buying digital content like instant videos.

If you are in Nigeria and intend buying or renting instant videos on Amazon, you should know that digital items such as movies are not open to Nigerian residents but there is still a way to go about it despite the restrictions.

The bottom line is that, if you can buy those instant movies while in the US or using a US ip and credit/debit card, then you can always download the movies anytime, even when you are in Nigeria.

This blog post is on how I buy and download instant movies on Amazon even while in Nigeria.
