QUOTE(greyshadow @ Mar 7 2016, 05:09 PM) It's a game of cat & mouse between those smart dns provider and Netflix. Actually Netflix loses when people unsubscribe. Hopefully Netflix thinks like Google and just put up an act of complying only.Netflix will blacklist certain smart dns IPs from their servers, hence blocking out the smartdns services until the provider change their dns to a new IP then again, once Netflix detected a new dns IP, blacklist and block again provider change IP again, Netflix block again, change, block, change, block.... till provider ran out of IPs to change, Netflix wins So enjoy your smartdns while you can, sooner or later it gonna get blocked again |

QUOTE(greyshadow @ Mar 8 2016, 08:17 AM) They don't care if some unsubscribe Netflix cannot even offer their own self made content fully to our region.IMO those will unsubscribe due to region blocking is just small amount, negligible loss to them Majority of their users are US based anyway, and most international users are still depending on local contents. So yeah, very minimal financial impact on them Getting sued by those licensing company or license holders are a lot more costly for them. |

QUOTE(voncrane @ Mar 8 2016, 09:26 PM) Its all LICENSING!!... Think TM's Hypptv vs Astro... Astro has broadcasting rights for EPL games in Malaysia... Without express permission from Astro, no other company/individual can legally offer the same content within Malaysia, without getting sued and losing cash in the process. No one is broadcasting House of Cards Season 1 now and yet Netflix cannot offer their very own content. How long those licensing deal going to last? No one broadcasts also cannot offer.Take House of Cards Season 4, I'm guessing either TM or RTL CBS Entertainment HD (under Hypptv) has broadcasting rights; rights that were probably sold to them before Netflix expanded to Malaysia and now can't be offered by Netflix. Could also be some other restriction in place (cough gove..m..net..cough). So yeah, to those thinking about unsubscribing and all that... I've got news for you: 1. Netflix offers a full 30 day trial period.. Pretty generous if you ask me... So test, if you don't like... Quit! That's the point of a trial period... 2. The inbound revenue from amount of people threatening to or down right quit, is wayyyyyy less than it would cost for Netflix to fight just one court case. Reputable international law teams do NOT come cheap. 3. Most major DNS services offer a trial period, so use that to test out your devices before dropping cash. Also, if your are technical enough, free working DNS servers are readily available on the internet. Sorry, please don't PM me about this... 4. The entertainment industry is big business.. Big media control is a thing ... Netflix has been dealing with licensing restrictions etc for years, so they know their stuff... One only needs to see that the amount of Netflix-owned shows & movies have been on the increase. This is them, trying to regain control... It'll take awhile. 5. There's always iflix... Already watching Netflix btw, with ahem unblocking (fingers crossed). |

all this talk about netflix buffering and slow might be the outcome of net neutrality being revoked. anyway was using amazon video during that time and it was smooth. i constantly switch between various video services bcos there is no point to pay for all while your time to watch is limited.
