NUS VPN (Virtual Private Network) sucks.

I am supposed to either watch a video from 2006 or one from 2005. I couldn't connect to the 2006 one with NUS VPN connected, and I couldn't connect to the 2005 one without NUS VPN connected.

But when I tried viewing the 2005 video with NUS VPN connected, the video was alright but the audio stream cut off 1s after playback started (from the start or from the seek point).

Last time we were able to watch NUScast videos without turning on NUS VPN (the support link now says we need it on); this is stupid. And now the feature to make the people talk faster by setting the video speed at 0.9x / 1.1x / 1.2x is gone too. Grr.

The more complex you make technology, the more cockups will happen. When will they learn their lesson?
