I bet it's not available in Sweden. Because fuck people for having the downright temerity to be located in a given country, right?

EDIT: I stand corrected, for once Netflix have their shit together. But it's still fucking retarded that people should get different shows just because of the country they're in. Fuck you, media companies, license your shit worldwide.

EDIT 2: What is a Netflix? A miserable little pile of geoblocking. But enough shitty content, have at you!

And as long as region lockout exists, it will be circumvented because people will want to stick it to those same media companies who employ it (as well as watch the content in question, of course).

Circumvention happened with VHS, DVDs, Blu Rays, and now streaming.

I still can't see MST3K. I'm six blocks away from the US. And they wonder why we pirate.

As long as Hollywood continues to protect its failing business model, that's what will happen. I don't blame you for doing it.

My experience with Netflix so far has been that I absolutely cannot spoof being in another country and get content appropriate to that country, unless I set up a separate account "from" that country. Otherwise, my account made in the US is tied to the US region.

Right. It sees I'm in another country, but knows the account was created in the US.
