Netflix seems to provide an app for Windows Laptops to watch titles offline.

Chromebooks here too.

MacOS is absent, but I'm sure it's not too far off using an Google Chromebook emulator with Google Play Store in UTM if it's a must.

the M1/M2 macs should be able to just run the iOS app. Not sure if it allows storing stuff. Or if netflix lets you run the ios app on a mac (probably not lol)

Unfortunately it doesn't seem like Netflix has allowed their app to show up in under the "iPhone & iPad Apps" section in the MacOS app store.

While the underlying silicon might share similarities I would love to get an idea from where you've seen the ability to arbritrarily run iOS apps on M1/M2.

I did consider an emulator in xcode, but that's not quite what I'm after.
