But when you're on holiday, you sometimes just wanna watch something to unwind after a long day, and depending on where you are there might not be friends locally.

The article is only talking about UK Netflix accounts working in the EU, not Netflix being banned in the UK - anyone who believes the latter is possible needs to loosen their crash helmet.

When I used to take trips out of town, we only had antenna. I thought it would be horrendous, but it was nice actually. It forced me to interact more with my surroundings. This was before streaming though. Youtube is also another option which I use to watch quite a lot actually...

I don't think Netflix US accounts work outside here so that wouldn't be unusual. Our media has always been locked down. Our DVDs only work in the US & Canada... Mexico and everything south of us is in under another region code... versus Europe which share y'all same region for the most part I think? We'd have to carry a compatible laptop/player to watch them abroad... Canada makes sense though to share the region code with... we share similar media/publications and the price is in US/CAN. Most can usually change the region code on your PC CD-ROM a certain number of times... I debated buying another drive, doing that and importing media... but it's so expensive to buy import... -_-
