if you're a football fan, sad to say the best and most reliable method would still be subscribing to astro >.>

anyone who have tried streaming any match or heck even searching for em while streaming would agree ._.

I've installed navi-x successfully, downloaded the latest zip file v37_3. Tried icefilms yesterday, for some reason, it download 200MB file. No idea what that one for.. but still need netflix for my son to watch his old-time favourites like power ranges etc. :)

correct me if i'm wrong but the 200mb file should be the cover art pack.

btw search for george carlin on netflix and give him a watch wiraone, he's a brilliant brilliant person and one of my fav comedian :P (do so without the presence of your kids though, if they're <13 years of age)

his view on human behavior is brilliant, yet he chooses to convey it in a really crude manner tongue.gif

also Netflix works for you on your iPad? did you set it according to unblock-us' settings or using your other* modem? because it hasn't been working for me off late . (iPad + unblock-us)

Planning to get an Apple TV 3rd Gen.
wondering what are the main reasons you guys are using it for?
*
it used to be my primary means of streaming from Netflix since I don't really like turning my ps3 on simply for Netflix (random game invites)

but since prime is available on the ps3 now my apple tv is used primarily to keep the balance of qi stable in its current place of storage - somewhere under my bed

Share which cost? If Netflix - I dont mind.
But no one seem to be able to answer what good is netflix against whats already available for free

this sums things up pretty well -

Wow, not sure what to make of all this rationalization of illegal behavior here. Does it matter if the price seems too high? No. Are the businesses trying to make money? Yes. Are the businesses doing anything illegal? No. Is it illegal to steal? Yes.

I think a lot of people think it's OK to steal movies and music because of some contrived rationalization. But I wonder what those same people would think or feel if their work or money was stolen from them using the same rationalization. And teaching children that stealing is OK so long as it's a large faceless corporation seems downright chilling to me.

No matter what post-modern feel-good bull-crap teachings say, right is right and wrong is wrong.



but on that note, netflix used to be a great source for copyrighted contents but they've been lacking lately and the price hike did it for me.

prime > netflix.

i did originally mention how netflix is good for older content but somehow edited it because it sounded overly cynical :x

to those with atv3, are you guys having any issues with streaming content on it? specifically with the service mentioned above :P

so you will have to use Amazon Prime on the Mac and then stream it over to the Apple TV?
*
i guess.

or you could stream it directly on your ps3.

download the app from your xmb, it's in the same section where netflix is.


addendum*

it's at the video section of the xmb.

Would like to know what vpn service you subscribe to for your atv3 coz I'm planning to get one

Thanks

the general consensus would be unblock-us. using it myself for prime.

hi

can this appletv play mkv firom external drive .....if can wanna sell my wdtv and get this instead
*
i would keep the wdtv and proceed with the atv. since both are for different functions. i've an atv / ps3 for netflix / prime & tvix for downloaded media.

if you're an osx user mountain lion might negate the need for a media player, though. (depending how well air play works)

Yes, the new Apple TV from apple store Malaysia comes with a UK 3-pin power plug. The box is taller to accomodate this.

thanks for sharing the info grandspy. now to get a malaysian unit and rid myself of pesky adapters >_>
