- XorNot 11y ago^ This. We can solve this problem by continuing to ensure the "fixes" don't work. Because above all Netflix proved that the convenience is worth the price of admission...but that region locks in a world with global bandwidth, paying customers and very limited distribution costs are pants-on-head stupid.
- icebraining 11y agoI think the problem is TV. Local networks still have power thanks to controlling TV/cable channels, and they demand exclusive rights over their region. That's why even Netflix doesn't have their own original series on many countries - they sold the rights to local cable networks.
