    I suggest & use a paid service. I can recommend Unotelly. The standard Dynamic DNS service is good enough for most devices (tv's, xbox, AppleTV etc) at home and it supports multiple users at the same time. If you intend to use mobile phone whilst out & about etc, then get their DNS/VPN...

    Nice..........Had a look at the trailer on youtube....first impression was a mix of Twin Peaks & something else. I would expect not avail on Netflix until end of season (if at all). Available on Hulu though already (if using a dns/vpn). I might start watching this after finish my current...

    If you want the most out of content availability, then perhaps use a "dynamic dns" service (as I've mentioned before), it's easier to setup xbox, bluray smart tv's etc. If you'll be purely playing via a laptop/pc then it might be easier to use a vpn service that will let you change between...

    Not sure about pure movies numbers, but in general (atm), the total no's of all movies/tv shows is OZ (1313) vs US (7724). In addition, if you roved other parts of the world, you will find stuff not available in either of these, so the unique titles across all regions is much more (something...

    I just changed from US to OZ for few mins to check out differences. First thing I noticed was that shows like Housos is not avail in US but is in OZ (expected). Not sure how they'd subtitle Housos for the US market. If you use a Dynamic DNS service, you'll find you can move between US...

    My son uses both via his Xbox. I'm more lazy about changing settings, so only use US in the lounge.

    Tim86 - Do you have your playback settings at "Auto" or "High" ? I believe when set to "Auto", it will adjust to best bandwidth setting. Perhaps forcing it to "High" will fix your problem?

    Just binge-watched "Wentworth", "Daredevil" & an investor/reno show, "Flip & Flop" over the last week. Giving the Netflix a workout during the day-time. Better than housework :D

    My peak time bandwidth with Internode seems to have taken a BIG hit. We use to be able to have 2 x Netflix USA streaming at same time. The last week or so has become REALLY BAD - now have to kick the teen off Netflix or any other type of streaming so we can watch in the lounge. Even FB or...

    Yep. And it was interesting to read in the news today about Telstra looking at links with Netflix despite their ties with Foxtel. http://www.smh.com.au/business/telstra-in-talks-with-netflix-despite-foxtel-stake-20150423-1mralu.html

    And next on the list is the new Copyright Laws http://www.smh.com.au/digital-life/digital-life-news/no-limits-rights-holders-could-potentially-block-hundreds-of-piracy-websites-in-australia-with-a-single-strike-20150326-1m3y6c.html Maybe I need to invest in a vpn business? :D

    AFAIK....... At a quick glance, they will look to operate very similar. In detail though, they are a whole lot different from each other. Hola is a peer to peer type system that uses several user pc's to cache traffic to both spoof the geo blocking and speed up data transfer. That means...

    Just checked in the USA. You can get the following if you use a vpn/dns to change your country. Hart of Dixie - Season 1-3 Cedar Cove - Season 1 Parenthood - Seasons 1-5 Saving Hope - nil (not in any other region either) Currently the Oz content is very small (but will build over...

    Interesting.........that's the same app, looks like android version is FREE but apple version needs payment - just another reason I personally don't buy i-things. The android version definintely shows OZ content already when you have it up & running. As for streaming, you'll find that as...

    From what I was reading over at Internode (my isp), it looks as though we'll be able to use it through mobiles, tablets tv's etc as well as fetch tv. I've been using a lappy with HDMI for the last 2 years, then a media streamer (WDTV), but I ended up getting a new Samsung bluray player...

    AFAIK, the bare bones price of Netflix accounts are similar around the world when currency is taken into account - except you'll need a DNS/VPN to access them of course (which may have a cost). Just in case people didn't know.....your netflix accounts are usable in all regions. ie: one...

    I use "StreamGuide-Netflix Worldwide" app on a lot of ocassions to see whats available. (both android/apple) It can show everything available to netflix across all the regions. For shows not available to OZ, then you just change countries with your dynamic dns account of choice (I use...

    I've been using Netflix (US) via a vpn for nearly 2 years now. In the first few months we really gave it a working over, watching complete series in weekend binges. Currently, our son uses the xbox one to watch series and we use a wdtv streamer for the big screen. I've never been tempted to...
