For people using unblock-us ....
I found a free version, i'm not even sure what you call these things but it changes your ip address when you switch it on is it? Anyway, its called Hotspot Shield. It's free, very easy to use, and i've been using it for nearly 3 months now.... it's great. The only downside is, there are pop ups every now and again...but its very safe. |

Their is another thread about free versions of unblock-us. I don't want ads, pop ups etc so £3 a month is fine.
Got my Apple TV set up with the DNS, Netflix USA and everything is great, thanks to the recommendations here. So far watched all of Breaking Bad and nearly all of Prison Break. On UK Netflix only about 8 Anime titles, in US must be hundreds. Also my Apple TV has updated as if it was in US

Borderland (2007) has recently been added to Netflix, comes highly recommended from Rotten Tomatoes and gets a 100% critics rating. I'm watching it tonight, once the sun has gone down anyway!
A good way to keep track of the latest additions to Netflix is to keep an eye on this page here: http://myfilmfinder.com/latest-releases/netflix |

US Netflix - The Mooring. Think Eden lake on water and more disturbing because it involves teenagers not adults.

Having skipped through this thread, I have come to the conclusion that it has nothing even worth watching for free, let alone paying for it.

Rubbish! I have had Netflix for a year now and I love it. Having the Unblock US to access other regions is a real bonus too but I am finding the UK site getting better. During the 12 months I have had Netflix I have seen all four seasons of Prison Break, all five seasons of Breaking Bad, three seasons of 24 and now watching their original series Orange Is The New Black which I am enjoying. Plus seen lots of films old and new as well. Excellent HD quality and dolby digital sound in some cases too.
The first of the last half season episodes of Breaking Bad will start to be shown weekly on UKNF, directly after it's aired in the US starting on the 11th of August

I agree. They really can't like anything to come to this conclusion. I suppose they also expect all of the latest Hollywood blockbusters that are still being shown at the cinema to be there for £5.99 a month.
When you consider that Sky Movies HD costs more than four times what Netflix does , I think that Netflix is amazing value for money.

That's done on purpose; it's called Adaptive Video Streaming (or something similar to that). It's so you can start watching the video instantly. To do that they start the video at a low resolution and gradually build it to the highest resolution over time as the buffer fills up.
I've seen so much quality stuff, on NF in the last year I rarely buy discs anymore. I'd imagine streaming like this will lead to the demise of large scale disc sales if that hasn't started to happened already? |

Thanks for that pb.It doesn't bother me as it's literally only 2 or 3 seconds of playing time at the beginning each time.

If I had to guess I'd say streaming has already affected disc sales, unless I'm a one off
but I can't see that being the case.Though the eventual demise of discs is a way off, as I already mentioned.Trends are usually slow starters are they not?

Interesting... how do you add a show to instant queue? also, has your account also updated to allow profiles? I also subscribe to Netflix via the UK, but I don't have Instant Que or profiles yet. It seems to be rolling slowly over to customers. |

It looks as if it may be just be in the rolling out period (unless of coarse its just a glitch on my account and its not meant to be there) as although it does show an instant queue section, it doesn't show up any queued items as of yet. When you open an item there will be a + instant queue box, this is what it looks like on iPhone http://i193.photobucket.com/albums/z...8DD810E51D.jpg |
