    I have no reason to "bullshit" anyone. I have had a good play with it tonight and am very impressed. The HD is far better on Netflix than on the normal HD channels although it does say that the broadcast is in SuperHD. I'm no techy but it obviously improves things. When pressing the info button it shows the speed and the SuperHD kicks in at about 4mbs @ 1080p. Prior to this is starts in SD, then 720HD until eventually reaching the maximum after a minute or so.

    I'm really looking forward to Netflix coming to vm so I can reduce the internet use age I use watching it on the computer. Only downside would be that I generally watch the American version.

    I wonder if one Netflix sub covers one box or if you could access it on a couple of boxes?

    Can you post a couple of screenshots for us?

    I am sorry but I have no idea how to post screenshots onto here. Is there a way to attach them to a posting?

    You can log in on as many devices as possible but you can only stream on 2 devices at a time, however you can pay more a month to stream on 4 devices at a time

    TiVo updated last night. Netflix app is there. Currently watching 'Super 8' in HD. Looks excellent. It is comparable with Dolby 5.1 too!

    I think Netflix offer up to 4 devides for a couple more £. But usually two is fine.

    You can register loads of devices on the same account - it is only the simultaneuous playback which is limited to two devices.

    I'm always intrigued by Netflix. Except I wonder what they have to hide (ie do they only show old programmes/films)

    As a layman I haven't yet found a way of finding out what's on unless I subscribe.

    Which I won't do until I can find what's on. Catch 22.

    Yep, the films are generally older, mostly things that have been out on DVD for 6 months plus and a lot of the TV is older stuff, but they do have some stuff that is brand new i.e. Breaking Bad or exclusive stuff they've created themselves such as series 4 of Arrested Development.

    They offer a free months trial that you can easily cancel so you can sign up and see what's available without paying anything, in fact, if you do it through a cash-back site you could even get paid to check it out!

    I looked at Netflix a couple of years ago, and wasn't really impressed at all.

    But recently its getting a lot better now that's its investing money in some excellent tv drama like House of Cards and their new one Orange is the New Black, which is excellent.

    Might not keep it long term, but definitely worth it just now for those, and a few other series we missed along the way.
