The issue isn't the market, it's DRM.
I'm only aware of one unbroken DRM scheme on Linux, and that's Hulu's proprietary Flash plugin usage. Binary-only Flash is a performance nightmare on Linux, regardless.
Netflix will support Linux the day that their content providers allow them to use a DRM-free solution.
- gcr 16y agoAre you talking about RTMPE? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_Streaming http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protected_Streaming Because that's been busted for some time. A lack of easy point-and-click GUI RTMPE dumpers does not mean the encryption scheme is unbroken. Tools which have a copy of the well-known constants extracted from the Adobe Flash player are able to capture RTMPE streams, a form of the trusted client problem. Adobe issued DMCA takedowns on RTMPE recording tools including rtmpdump to try to limit their distribution. However in the case of rtmpdump, this led to a Streisand effect.
