Well, accessing Tv shows is also an side benifit, but I mainly need it to store my drafts for school work, most of them are videos, since I've taken a video Editing coruse in my school, and As far as blocking certain protocols go, my school is pretty leinent with those, they dont even have netflix blocked! and I know the admin password anyway, so that shouldn't be an Issue, and the friends are is due to the fact, that they might also want to store some of their data on their, you know.
