    I am totally addicted to this show. I watch 3 or 4 episodes a night. I have two episodes left of season 3 which I will get through tonight. It’s superb. The ending of season 2, ABQ, blew my socks off.

    Netflix is worth every penny of my £6.99 a month subscription. In fact I would pay double – nay triple – that amount if they added more content. I have loaded the app onto my 9-year old daughters tablet and she is hooked on the service too.

    We are so impressed that we are considering dumping our pay TV provider – who charges a kings ransom each month – for the free-to-air services + Netflix. We would save a considerable amount of money and there would only be a few shows we wouldn’t be able to find elsewhere (mainly US stuff like Ice Road Truckers and … shudder … 19 Kids & Counting).

    Food for thought. Internet TV (IPTV?) is the future of broadcasting as far as I can tell.

      totally. and on-demand TV of any kind is just so much better than live TV.

      we started Homeland (great show) on DVD before we got cable. then when we got cable, we used Showtime On-Demand (which we got at a discount, intro rate) to tear through all the remaining episodes. being able to sit down and watch what you want when you want completely blows away passive viewing.

      cable providers here are very worried about people ditching cable for TV-over-internet, though. it eats a lot of bandwidth and diverts eyeballs away from the commercials.
