| 1397056 | 2015-03-28 05:55:00 | Trying the free month at the moment. So far it's ok, the most impressive part and the thing that'll kill lightbox if they don't catch up is the device support. Lightbox works on my PC, and my PS3. Netflix does as well, but also on my phone and my tablet. And that's just me. They list a decent amount of hardware support on their site. NZ content is ok, will keep me entertained for a little while at least. |

At present we get close to dial-up speed (not joking) during the day, even less at 9PM Watching any streaming video is an exercise in frustration. And updating a PC means leaving it overnight Ah well, these are the joys of living 'Away from it all' It's still better than living in Jafaland. :p |

| 1397059 | 2015-03-28 21:07:00 | keep in mind it will use your data while playing so if you have a low limit it could get sucked up easily over a short time.Yep. I only watched 4.5 episodes of Stargate Atlantis yesterday before my cap hit 95%. Oops. I signed up for the free month standard package so that is HD when available. Probably not the best option with a smaller cap. :rolleyes: I have been meaning to re-evaluate my choice of ISP/packgage since the change with how Chorus charges providers. Better stop procrastinating and sort it now. As an aside, Netflix works great with Chromecast and my Android tablet. :thumbs: |

Its meant to use Netflix -- ;) If it doesn't work, may need to buy Apple TV, dont really want to use a mobile device to connect. Rather have ( heaven forbid) another remote lol. |

| 1397064 | 2015-03-29 04:20:00 | Pretty sure there is precedent in the states for T&Cs not being legally enforceable. | icow (15313) | ||
| 1397065 | 2015-03-29 04:38:00 | Is there a list somewhere of what they have available for NZ? | Agent_24 (57) | ||
