Netflix is now in the UK

Red and White · 1 Feb 2012 at 08:57

apparently the limit is 6 devices but I havent tested it. When I log into the website and click on my devices it doesnt show any, even though Ive used it on 4 or 5 devices. there is an option to deregister devices there so you can start using it on different devices but like I say for me it shows nothing.

How many devices can you use this on?

Also if i take my laptop places can i used it where ever i go?

I read somewhere that it is up to 6 devices at one time?

Either way its still pretty impressive.

I still think its worth the money as it is. Maybe when i have watched most content I might change my mind but for now its well worth it.

Signed up and tbh im actually pretty impressed with the UK version so far and it can only get better in time

£15 cashback for doing a free trial on Quidco!

I have seen a few people complaining about the quality that i just do not get.

I am currently playing SD content through my xbox and it looks fantastic, and then the HD content looks even better!

I also had a play with it on the Wii, i wasnt expecting much after having a go on iplayer when it first came to wii (that has improved now), but even on the Wii the SD content looks great!

With new stuff coming out all the time its a steal at £5.99.

I only got it the other day and I feel I have already got my moneys worth! Been watching Arrested Development all day whilst doing some work!

Loving the sheer amount of great kung fu films on the US version. Only problem I have is that netflix has "learned" my tastes and now I don't seem to have any recommended films that aren't Asian...

I'm watching the four seasons of The 4400 atm on NF and am blown away at htf I missed such a superb show. Makes Heroes look like complete trash so far.

In terms of quality it is by far the best streaming service going in my opinion, You can have a load of content (lovefilm) but if it looks like rubbish then it isn't worth it.

Still working on ATV2 too. Been nearly three weeks. Sometimes causes a reboot but 99% of the time it just works.

Pffft, just signed up online, works fine on PC, installed and loaded it up on PS3. Got past sign on screen, red netflix screen with the 5 bars, frozen solid. Had to shut down the PS3 and now the PS3 is corrupted !! Thanks a ****** lot !!

Wasn't going to bother trialling Netflix due to the shocking choice on there, but I've been tempted by the Quidco deal. Now, it says you have to 'complete' the trial so does that mean you can't cancel before your trial ends? In other words we will all end up paying for the first month?

Totally agree. Lovefilm is total pants compared to Netflix when it comes to streaming. Lovefilm's content is mostly rubbish and the quality is borderline abysmal for sound and video.

Netflix were right when they described Sky Go as their only UK rival upon launch. They probably looked into LoveFilm's offerings and concluded that the service was insignificant.

biggets problem for lovefilm is the gui. its horrid and slugish. sure the quality could be better but that gui just doesnt seem to want to work smoothly what so ever.
