For those wanting to sample the US library - if you install the hola.org plugin in Firefox or Chrome, it will get you there for free. Unfortunately, both of those browsers are limited to 720P though.

Same as US prices but only 10% of whats available there. Pretty crappy

For movies, Netflix Thailand has less than five percent of the US library. Not exactly value for money in Thailand, is it?

It is for a one month for free trial,that's all I will be doing,cancelled it already.

Fantastic price for a months viewing.

I tried Unlocator, and very impressed. Easy to install, either for all devices by changing the modem DNS, or selectively per device. I have installed on my Apple TV and USA Netflix now works with very acceptable quality and no buffering on a 55" TV with an 18mbs internet connection.

One thing I noticed is that the selection of shows u see on the home screen is only a fraction of the database available. Do a search by a word and a ton of movies and shows appear that are not on the main screen .

I have a US account. I noticed that when my VPN was disconnected, US Netflix wasn't blocked.

You would just have got the Thai selection instead. It doesn't matter where you signed up.

Netflix apparently only checks when the content is being requested. If your VPN disconnects the current content plays on. However when you request another piece of content it fails. Edited by sniffdog

That makes sense - the TCP/IP session is already established - unless it gets interrupted it's not going to re-negotiate the connection again.
