    Default Who uses Netflix?

    After Netflix told us that they fully intend on rolling out to South Africa by the end of 2016 [LINK, for those who missed the news], I wanted to know how ya'll get your non-game video entertainment.

    I feel like this OP should be longer, so I added this paragraph. There is a poll. Feel free to vote

    I use it. Been using it for a year now and it's great. Dunno what I'd do without it, to be honest. The wife abdolutely loves it.

    I also use Hulu, but don't think I use it to its full degree - I watch 3 sitcoms on it weekly.

    Eh, Netfix is starved of Anime, I can't legally use CR or FUNi so I make use of HorribleSubs, Commie, THORa, Deadfish, IS, Coalgirls and sometimes OZC, and buy Blu Rays and DVD's when they are available in R2.

    Hulu seems to have a fair bit of Anime http://www.hulu.com/tv/genres/anime

    Besides what is airing currently, Tokyo Ghoul, Rolling Girls, Maria and all the other current seasons shows I have seen everything on Hulu, if you watch anime for about 10 years or more you tend to watch most of that is considered popular in the west. Which is what sites like Hulu and Netflix have.

    Used to have both Netflix and Hulu, left them since othe former's only handled bulk season of TV Shows and the movie catalogue in terms of recent releases didn't satisfy me, while the latter's catalogue overall felt haphazard and underwhelming. So to the TV and Flick end, I'll say alternative means. Anime? There can only be one for me; Kissanime or blu-rays, of course.

    Dude, I'm just going to say... Kissanime, and I'll leave it at that.

    Dammit, I knew I missed an option. Let me bomb that in quick.
    You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say will be misquoted, then used against you.
