We just got Netflix in our funny little country but the offer is laughable. Everyone on internet is saying to use Smartflix.

Has anyone on hump used it?

Wow good find! I'll try it out.

edit: works fine here. If I want it on my TV. I'll just connect the MacBook to it.


"Enlightenment is man's emergence from his self-imposed nonage. Nonage is the inability to use one's own understanding without another's guidance. This nonage is self-imposed if its cause lies not in lack of understanding but in indecision and lack of courage to use one's own mind without another's guidance. Dare to know! (Sapere aude.) "Have the courage to use your own understanding," is therefore the motto of the enlightenment."

Yeah, just check it out at work and looks good. We will see how it develops and if the 8$ fee will be true.
Some people report false positive results on shitty AV.

We will see. So far it's really good, I haven't noticed bad transfers but some losses in quality when it starts streaming. Yet it looks too good to be true especially with one time fee.

there are no films, tv series or episodes of the last 2 years
there is no sherlock holmes
there are no star wars movies/series
there is no expanse
there is elementary in season 2 (currently season 4)

only for 7-9-12eur a month - laughable

I think it's different for every country. I know the US has loads of films/series that Sweden doesn't get (use a webproxy or just hola). But yeah, they are missing quite a bit although they are also getting better considering they're funding some of their own shows. ^_^

with so much missing, it's not worth the money - maybe 1-2 eur a month to rewatch old stuff

Then use Hola or that Smartflix. It's against TOS but no one was ever banned for using VPN.

Indeed, I am paying for netflix but if they block me from the American catalog (or even from the brazilian catalog if I am travelling abroad) I will stop paying right away. Piracy is available everywhere Cool Face

Yeah same here. I'm in the process of downloading everything I was watching and adding it to Plex. Screw them - they'll lose a LOT of subscribers over this.
