Here in the States they add movies and other content very regularly (not every day, but at least once a week). Granted there is a lot of stuff that isn't on there that should be, but the sheer amount of stuff on it over here means you'll never run out of things to watch on it.

I've had Netflix for about 6 months now, and I mostly love it. I don't understand their logic sometimes though. "It's Halloween time. Let's take off all the classic, great horror movies to make room for every season of Man vs. Wild and Billy the Exterminator. People will like that. And for all the horror fanatics who will bitch about it, we'll put on all the latest direct-to-video Paranormal Activity rip-offs. That should hold them over."

Most of those old classic horror films are easily viewable on Youtube anyway.

The Canadian version is very much the same. Just not enough good content to keep me there. You can get around that though, there' s a few free options like tunlr but I've had no luck with it. I've been using Unblock-us for a bit now with absolutely no issues, but I've also heard good things about unotelly.

Anyways, this is the guide I used, it should work in the europe too:

I watch it once in awhile. Depends on what is new and what is popular. I am more into horror and action. Mainly 18A movies.............

My room mate just got Netflix and I wanted to put this PSA out there:

Look up Black Sabbath, then watch the 50~ minute documentary about Paranoid. Incredibly in-depth, with interviews and anecdotes from all four members. Plus they throw in some really neat stuff for the obsessive fan, like Tom Allom (engineer during the recordings) in the studio playing/toying with the master tapes. I really got a huge kick out of hearing some of Ozzy's "guide vocals", where he know's HOW he's going to sing, but doesn't have the lyrics yet, so he's essentially freestyling over the music.

Plus Henry Rollins gives the greatest critical analysis of the song Iron Man I've ever heard. He really brings to light how many subtle change-ups were going on with that track. It's certainly not the one-note bruiser it often gets labelled as.

Just arrived to Finland couple of weeks ago. Gotta say it is pretty fucking great. Amount of content is pretty small but i guess it will grow soon. I'd just love to get "Friends", and then i'd be happy.

I just drove by Blockbuster and saw that theyre closing soon. Not surprised in the least.

I have been watching that happen for years. The same thing happens at Christmas time. I've complained to multiple times over the years, and every year the same thing happens.

Anyone else watch the Netflix exclusive House of Cards? Saw the first episode and I was amazed. The show has a ton of style and the political intrigue is... intriguing.

Also, Kevin Spacey.

I used Netflix for many years and liked it. I'm still a member, but I cut down the membership to bare bones.

More & more, content is available from other sources online. I think Netflix needs to begin expanding their streaming service with the goal of eventually phasing out rental hard-media.

In the next 5-10 years there just won't be very much physical media at all, for film & TV. It's all going to be streaming/online.

They still have Until The Light Takes Us available on instant for those interested.

I generally find Netflix instant to be disappointing. I usually end up watching the same movies or television reruns over and over.

Anybody know if they'll get higher quality streams up on Netflix? My family only recently got it and I watched Last of the Mohicans and the quality had to be the same as downloading a 700 mb movie off the internet.

Doubtful(or at least not with present technology readily available). Most people won't be able to tell you what 1080pi is, or how the encoding process even works when streaming movies from Netflix.

Does anyone here use Amazon Prime? I've heard the streaming service you get along with it is close in quality to Netflix. Had no idea the service existed. A flat $80 a year for Amazon Prime, free two day shipping (no weight limit) on Amazon approved sellers, and you get the streaming service which is available on a lot of TV's, the PS3 and 360, etc. I might try it out this year since I buy a lot from amazon.

Yes, I have Amazon Prime as an app on my HDTV. Since I'm a Prime member, I get a lot of content for free. I have an Amazon credit card, so I'm basically "all in" with Amazon -- like it or not

It's a nice service, especially if you use it in conjunction with Netflix. Between the two, you have a better chance of finding something.

The streaming/quality seems similar to me as Netflix. Not bad, as long as you have a decent bandwidth connection. The "HD" offerings are definitely not HD, if you are used to blu ray or some other true HD playback. But it's watchable, absolutely.

Megan is Missing popped up on my front page yesterday and I watched it. Damn. Just watch it.

Log on your account on Netflix.com, go to "Your Account" in the top right corner, then click on "Manage Video Quality." You might already be set to the highest option but it's worth checking.

Netflix rolled out something called "SuperHD", but it's only available to ISPs like Cablevision and Google Fiber. Most other ISPs have this stupid bandwidth limit or relatively low speeds.

Netflix Streaming is most appealing to watch numerous network television shows and a myriad of foreign films( though I'm disappointed that they've taken off some of the more obscure ones they showed). As far as feature films go, I always find it disappointing that they never have what I most feel like seeing i.e. the Rambo movies or Kubrick films. The really cool classic shit. Plus a substantial fraction of their former streaming library is unavailable since the company's well publicized falling out with Starz which held the rights to many of those films.

I have Netflix Instant on the TV. What pisses me off is that the damn thing likes to only work like every other day. But otherwise it's great; get to watch South Park, King of the Hill, and I was psyched when I found out they were showing I Saw The Devil.

We don't get Netflix in Australia unless you use a bypass American proxy but I'm too lazy for that.
Our other option here is Foxtel and while it has next to no underground films besides the subtitled ones in the Wold Movies channels, it's a solid cable/dish service which well makes up for it with things like new, fast tracked TV shows from the US like Walking Dead, Breaking Bad etc.

The price is pretty hefty though, they ask for about $120/month for the platinum package but in my eyes it's worth it because they've got a free movies/tv show on demand library which has hundreds of content and also bought out apps for iPhone and iPad which if you have a subscription, you can use it for free and just live stream.

I work for the company so I get it for free (just paying $10/month for HD box rental) but it's pretty great and would try my best to cough up the asking price if I didn't work for the company.

Cool. Next time I have it open I'll check that.

Anyone who has Netflix and has not checked it out yet should watch House of Cards. Very intriguing political drama!

American Netflix got rid of most of the exploitation films I wanted to watch. Huge bummer.
