Netflix app? TTBOMK, there is no application that allows the use of
Netflix and its DRM'ed video in GNU/Linux. Are you doing something
crazy like using the Android Netflix app in an emulator?
If so, I'd highly suggest a better Netflix solution--like dual-booting
with Windows or using a Roku/PS3/Wii/XBox 360 + XBox Live/"Smart" TV/DVD
or BluRay player or, well, basically anything that's actually supported
by Netflix. And I /do/ realize that it's not the ideal solution for a
GNU/Linux user, so don't tell me--tell Netflix.
