Netflix

direct download link

The apk file attached allows you to install Netflix, at the moment they are giving a free months subscription and you can use your UK address to register and use it.

I've had it about 2 weeks and it works a trea, great on full screen on the KF, sound isnt great but if you put earphones in the difference is noticable, due to the location of the speakers.

You dont need to mess with the settings in silk like you would with BBC iplayer either, just load and go. Streaming via wifi is exellent.

Ive been thinking about Netflix - when you browse the listings as a non member, do you get to see all the offerings, or are there more hidden that only members can see ? My kids want to watch WWE, but i havent seen anything at all in the browsing section.

RE: Netflix

We have just started the 1 month free trial. Works great on the pc, but I wanted to watch on the tv and it's rubbish via the Wii (which they say you can use), so we have ordered a media streamer. Don't ask - I have no idea how it works, OH ordered it.

RE: Netflix

I've had a look at both Netfilx and LoveFilm with a view to possibly getting rid of my Sky Movies, but to tell the truth I was a bit disappointed with the selections. Now Sky have opened up Anytime+ so it can be used with any broadband provider and so far it seems to be pretty good so I've held off subscribing to anything else.
