How did you manage that, by changing your DNS on the laptop? As normally everything defaults to the UK.

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

Nope, I was using ibVPN, but not even signed into that for ages, and not signed out of Netflix I presume?

Re: Netflix/Streaming Services

Slightly off topic, I got a new smart TV last Saturday and have stopped using the ever so slow TiVo to access Netflix, the speed difference in accessing Netflix via the apps menu on the TV is so much quicker than via the TiVo.

Not unexpected at all as TV manufacturers update their range annually, as do streamer box manufacturers. Therefore they are able to update the processing speed annually. PVRs generally have a five year update cycle. I still think Netflix via Tivo is adequate for those people with older TVs who don't want to , for whatever reason, add a streamer box.

Yes, it is amazing how quickly you can access Netflix when using other devices.

However, to be fair, once you are in, the speed seems to be the same with the Tivo.

A quote here that Old Boy should take notice of.

Quote:
Barb said that subscribers to services such as Netflix and Amazon are not using it to replace traditional TV viewing, including pay TV.

Well, they would probably say that about me. Those who can afford it want the best of all worlds.
