Premise: I just bought a Shield so I could start using Netflix on my TV (they still don't have an installable application for my old HTPC).
On topic: I generate all my passwords (variable length 30+ characters), and to log into both the Shield and (as a family account) my wife's phone, I had to type (or copy/send) the entire password in using a directional remote or a phone keyboard. No magic email link, no netflix.com/auth request, no PIN number, no personal wife account that I could include into my family plan.
Passwordless solutions can't come soon enough. the email route is fine for me, though I'm sure there could be better solutions too.
