Netflix has expanded to 6 new countries.

Hi all,


Netflix has just launched in France, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland, Luxembourg

and Austria . Netflix said it will spend $3 billion to produce unique

European contents.

Have you checked the new regions yet? Did you find any unique movie/show?

Still not Australia?

And they wonder why the piracy rate is so high here...

Soon(TM).

Fox and Murdoch will fight it tooth and nail. But as long as we keep net-neutrality, people can hilariously use right-wing economics (ie. market freedom) to oppose any attempts to block them.

It might be Australia's rich history of importing criminals guilty of the worst of crimes. Petty theft and owing money.

I don't think the aboriginals ever put in an order for criminal white men with funny accents.

Don't worry soon you'll get it, but in return Netflix will be forced to make using VPNs and similar much harder to get around access limitations. Don't want you guys to watch too much stuff.

Oh to hell with that. If I want to watch Air Crash Investigations on the Canadian website I'm going to. If it's free for moose-riding rednecks it can be free for kangaroo-riding convicts.
