Outgoing is much easier, because you aren't looking for a reply or a return. But in order to download something, you have to provide a usable and real IP address as destination for the returning packets, or they go nowhere.

I was thinking more along the lines of a VPN style solution. Swap the IP for that of one of a VPN cluster, tunnel out to the server, encrypt the whole thing.
But the real point is short of extensive logging, data mining and really intrusive lock downs of allowed ports and packet types, there will always be a technical way to defeat logging, security, drm or anything else you throw out there.
