Post by shabbado »

Anyone on a PC and wanting to access the American (or other regions) version of Netflix simply install the Hola plugin for Chrome.

Why would Netflix cancel a subscription you are paying for?

Region exclusive material is a crock of shit anyway.

What are UK subscribers missing out on?

Not a great deal different from the US tbh, but with the hula thingy you can get netflix from every country that does it. I suppose theyre worried about foreign rights issues.

Netflix can't control third party publishers producing software that gets around their content. dare say that they could never be held responsible and very much doubt that distributors would withdraw their product as streaming is the future. fucked if I've walked into a blockbusters or xtravision for near on.....I don't know, too many years.

strange how times have changed. in the past I would go to a rental store and spend £? on rentals. however now that it is digital and I see that Xmen blah blah is £3.75 to rent, I think "do I really want to see it for that?"

pirate bay has ruined my opinion of worth.

Clearly you are a man who has never seen, "One of our dinosaurs is missing" or "black beards ghost".

I thought you would have been personal friends with Black Beards ghost.

I just use CactusVPN SmartDNS, you can watch either, if you don't have a fixed IP addy you can flick your router off and get a free trial for life.

I never looked on the UK one, but I think I have seen everything on netflix now so maybe cancel and just use others id's or trials
