That said I fully support this decision. It's a good move for the EU and I have no love for the MPAA and the Europe's movie and TV industry.
- jfaucett 10y agoWhen did you have that? When we tried Netflix it simply wasnt accessible outside the country.
- aquilaFiera 10y agoNetflix launched globally in January 2015. With the exception of a few countries (like China, North Korea, Syria, and a few others) Netflix is available world wide now. The catalog still varies by country though but nearly all of the Netflix Originals are available world wide.
- Freak_NL 10y agoYeah, right now Netflix is available to you basically everywhere, but the regional licensing means you get to see only the content available in the country you are presently in, not where you are a subscriber. Of course, to prevent customers from pretending to be somewhere else, VPN access is mostly blocked now.
- m_t 10y agoI experienced this last summer (2016). I was in Portugal, and was pleasantly surprised to discover that the Portuguese's Netflix still had a tv series that the UK one had ditched. The pleasantness didn't last long when I realised that my poor knowledge of Portuguese wasn't enough to read the subtitles!
