The agreement that Netflix has with the distributors does not allow for IW on profile accounts. Netflix would have to break the terms of that contract to offer that service, which would not be a good idea.
I too would love to have profiles have t...
On my AMD Athlon 64 5000+ (2.6 GHz) I cannot stream very well at all. Through my Roku box, it looks very good (even HD). I have read that Silverlight 2 does not make very good use of hardware acceleraton. I have read somewhare that Silverlight 3 w...
Re: ColdOne:
As far as IP addresses go, I am not sure what methods Netflix uses to detect people violating the TOU. I agree it would be a shame if IP filtering prevented a business traveler from using his laptop to stream while out of town. Wither...
One of the big arguments here is that instant watch activity, and instant watch ratings, will influence Netflix movie recommendations. Since Netflix holds this feature in high regards (and they even have a million dollar prize up for grabs for the...
To quote a famous line: "What we have here is a failure to communicate"... Yes, I do lock my door, and I do agree with you that if cable did not scramble it's content, or if stores did not use security tags that more people would still.

Weather you allow only the main account, or also allow sub accounts to stream, if someone want's to abuse the system, they will. Netflix already has the technology to detect how many streams one account is using at any given time. So, it should no...
It is already limited for all accounts. If you have 3 at a time, you can only stream up to 3 movies at once and can only have 6 (I think) devices/computers registered at one time. I am sure they also watch the IP addresses already for suspicious a...
I was hoping for a very simple solution and my dad does not even have a Cell Phone. I really like the sub account feature and I have it setup 2 for him, 1 for me. That way, we both get movies we want.
The reason I would prefer not to give him acc...
I have an account with a sub account for my dad. I recently bought a Roku box for the main TV and would like to have him watch anything he wants. I really do not want to give him my account info, but, would like him to have access to instant watch...
