Yes, good news. I've been using a VPN to access my US account. No longer any need for that.
Here's the list of where it is available - https://help.netflix.com/en/node/14164

I checked the site and the introductory offer is "free" for one month but you have to give them your credit card info up front..
Parrot, how was the connectivity and streaming experience?

Yes, to sign up (for most anything that offers 'one month free') you provide credit card info. If you choose to cancel before the one-month-free period, you won't be charged.
My connectivity and streaming experience, thus far, perfect. No problems. I think my TOT line must have been upgraded while we were in the US last year.......as I'm no longer experiencing slowdowns like I did previously.

Am with TOT as well, while it has improved, I still have slowdowns and no play
This 4g coming has the telco companies upgrading systems
So here is hoping
3BBB came to our village and said they may start transmitting in this area
This may also encourage better internet thru competition

Well, as it turns out, this is not 100% of Netflix's total programming that's available in the states. One series that I just started watching, House of Cards, is not available on the "filtered" link available here in Thailand. I still have to use a VPN to watch. Great series about the seedy underside of politics inside the D.C. beltway. Probably more truth in it than you could get anyone to admit.
Every day I wake up is a good day.

I have the same experience as BigBubba. Many of my favorites are not available in Thailand. It may be something to do with the rating systems. The Thai system has such things as 13+ and 16+. The US system, PG, R, MA, etc. Looks like the more 'mature' ratings are not available here, as well as those that have no rating, NR.
So will continue to use my VPN for some shows.
My streaming experience is better with the Thai connection than the VPN.

It will be interesting to see how they achieve that.
It would be possible to spot IP addresses used by a large number of users & then block them, but it is probably not even that simple..
It would possibly mean that they would have to ban anyone from using TOR.
I suspect that this is a company declaration more for certain Government consumption than something they will vigorously pursue to extinction.
If they do achieve it then there is always the availability of KickAss & similar torrent sites to download & watch just about anything shown anywhere..
p.s. I use Kodi. It currently shows the 3 series of House of Cards. Series 4 starts 4th. March in the USA..

Currently watching "Making a Murderer".......no actors, no scripted dialogue.....documentary sort of story and enjoying it. Next up, probably "Narcos". Which makes me wonder if they allow a show like Narcos in Thailand, what would be the holdup on any other show. I'm confident as time goes on more will be added to their menu. Seems to be worth the bang for the buck.
Netflix
Making a Murderer is a great watch but will leave you fuming at the US Justice system, which is evidently as bad as countries in South East Asia...
I really enjoyed Narcos and having only a vague knowledge of Pablo it was very interesting, particularly how much money he actually made.

Narcos would probably qualify for 'mature' ratings....certainly more than you'll ever see on True/UBC. But it's available here on Netflix....uncensored.

About half-way through season 1 now. Riveting entertainment, especially since it's at least based on a true story. Totally forgot about the Avianca flight that was brought down by Escobar and his henchmen. My only complaint is that it's at least 50% in Spanish, with English subtitles, so if I get sleepy and close my eyes for a bit I can't just listen to the dialogue.parrot wrote:
