  1. But you generally cant stream new releases and I would have thought streaming is a bit of a no no for video and audiophiles that frequent this forum.
  2. wanted: breaking bad complete 6 seasons please pm
  3. Dickson, Canberra Luckily for me its along the way home and parking is easy at 5:30pm
  4. For those unaware, Moviebase is/was an online company that rents out blu ray discs via Austraila Post. For a monthly fee, you were about to rent out 1 to 3 blu ray discs. When you return a movie, they will send you another title that is in your queue. Their claim to fame was that they apparently had every single blu ray title ever released in Australia. I was only a member with them for 2 months but sadly they are closing down on 14th Feb 2016 Was anyone here a member, if so what will you be doing as an alternative to mail order rentals? For me, its back to the local Blockbuster video store for those new release blu rays.
  5. I share the same sentiments as the OP. I flicked on Foxtel last night wondering where the ashes were. I cant believe Foxtel don't have the rights to show the Ashes this year. Now we have to listen to the clowns in the channel 9 commentary team, as well as put up with the sub par picture quality. And don't forget some days of the Lords test will be shown on channel nine (not GEM) in blur-o-vision.
  6. is there a news article about this pipe hitting capacity? I would like to read up more about this.
  7. I meant its my isp being overloaded during peak hours, not us netflix. Which doesnt make much sense because i can stream the aussie netflix just fine in hd quality during peak times and my speed test reveals about 12mbit/s. The issue is gettting to us netflix during peak. I would like to see if others have the same issue.
  8. I have NBN 25Mbit/s, can stream Australian netflix in HD perfectly even during peak times. The problem arises however when switching to US netflix, (where all the good movies are located) I cant get HD during peak times. As soon as midnight passes, i can get 720, then around 1am I can finally get 1080. So good luck to those on a slower connection trying to watch US netflix in HD when I can't even get it on a fibre connection. HD movie quality is pretty good though. On a 50 inch and below tv set most people probably notice any differences to the blu ray version. On a 140 inch projector screen you will notice the difference to the blu ray version: The picture seems darker, and colours are not as vibrant. The 5.1 audio quality is kind of disappointing too. I will still rent blu rays, and only watch catalog movies on netflix (most movies on netflix are old catalog titles anyway)
  9. Are you running US netflix or AU netflix, because for me, US netflix slows down alot during peak times. I can never get HD between 7pm-12am on US netflix, when AU netflix streams HD perfectly during the same peaks times.
