You still watching DVDs grandpa? I wanna watch Netflix on the stupid thing. I use my android tablet for that instead.

Netflix works without issue on Chrome in Linux.

Wow thank you for that link. I've had two browsers installed with chrome being used purely for Netflix. Now I can finally give the damn thing the boot.

Yes, it also works. And you need to enable DRM support in Firefox as well.

I slowed down for a while when I first got Netflix. Then I sped up again when some of the shows I was watching disappeared when I was mid-season. Netflix is great, but when I want to actually be sure that I'll be able to watch something, I buy it.
