How to choose
The limit counts devices connected at the same moment, not devices you own. A limit of 10 means ten online through the VPN at once.
Streaming boxes need an app of their own. Where there's no Apple TV or Fire TV app, the fallback is a router set up with the VPN.
Look at the renewal price as well as the intro price. Whatever plan covers the whole house, the renewal is what you'll pay for it after the first term.

Worth knowing. One home router running a VPN counts as one connection, but it routes every device. Check each provider's router support if you'd rather set it up once.
