i just bought an Apple TV 4, still have yet to unbox it.

thanks in advance

Using SmartDNS by Getflix. No problem so far, stable and maintain original ISP highspeed. Find the link to buy it cheap below my signature.
Subscribed via the official web, from which accessible once u get your SmartDNS configured.

Getflix better or UnblockUS?

im using UnblockUS and no problem so far...thinking to switch to Getflix due to cheaper price.

I think they works the same.. SmartDNS wont affect speed, but VPN will.
This Getflix stuff is easy to use on computer(Mac or PC) and phones (Android, iOS or Windows) as they have standard applications where you just need to install, login your account ant it will do the job. No need manual configure.
But for ATV or whatever devices that not able to install these apps, then you have to manually configure the DNS, which is just few clicks away.
I guess there's no harm to try to use Getflix for such a low price..

is this attached to the Apple ID or totally independent account from Netflix?
Payment would be made to Netflix directly or through iTunes?

Its independent. Nothing to do with Apple. Payment made directly to Netflix.

You can download the Netflix apps from US App Store, then login using the subscibed account and there you go with all the contents.

Okay, thank you again
Can I make subscription on Netflix website without a US Credit Card?
And the Apple TV I'm using is 4th gen, can I make a US Apple ID just to get the Netflix app and then use my primary Malaysian Apple ID that is associated to my other Apple Devices?
Or it would make more sense to leave a US Apple ID signed in instead of using my Primary Malaysian Apple ID?
I bought the Apple TV 2 weeks back and it's still in the box.
Don't know how to set up properly.

You're welcome.

I used my Malaysia credit card for subscription payment on Netflix subsciption. Used PayPal before as well.
It all works just fine.

Yes, you can use the US Apple ID just to download the app, and then switch back to your primary M'sia Apple ID and you still will be able to enjoy the downloaded apps, which in this case was the Netflix. I done this, all the time.

Its easy to set it up, hook the power point plug and HDMI to your tv, then turn on the power. The rest is quite a few clicks away, quite straight-forward for techies like us.

Thanks again.
What about the setup of the getflix?
I'm planning to set everything up tomorrow night or Monday after getting home from my vacation

Once you subscribed to Getflix, you will be able to access to a list of DNS.
There's also a direct step-by-step guidelines from Getflix to setup the Apple TV(and other devices as well) which you can follow. Everything will just work in breeze.

Real face palm, setup was fine managed to make an US iTunes Account, separated iCloud with iTunes Apple ID BUT the problem is Getflix is having issues with registration of new accounts with @me.com emails  doh.gif
can you check if its possible to change emails after setting up the account, if its possible i'll use my other email account then later switch to my @me.com email.
or else i'll just wait for 1 week tops to see if they fixed the issue

I think you should get in touch with the Getflix admin then. I don't see why it don't work with .me emails.

I assumed you bought your Getflix from the link below my signature? Well, if that's the case, have you activated the codes?
If you haven't, then you can register another account using another email address, and then, activate the code in that new account. I do this coz i don't wan't 'New Account' which was rubbish written in StackSocial for Getflix.

Yes I purchased it from stack social as I have already have an account with them.
You mean it's possible to activate the code twice? Once on my other email and another time on a new Getlfix account once they can accept @me.com email?
*
No, it can only be activated once on a single email address.
The only thing you see after entered the code was the extension of usability period, for 30 years. You need contact Getflix support team if it dont work.
