[AusNOG] FetchTV + Netflix

[Skeeve Stevens]

Hey all,

This is an interesting move... a smart one by FetchTV...

http://www.fetchtv.com.au/press-release/Coming-soon-to-Fetch-TV-Netflix

It just really makes them a conduit and give a good platform for the screen
integration without needing another dongle... but I'm going to guess that
users still sign up directly with Netflix as opposed through a 'broker'?
It would be smoother to have it packaged... and simple, since they have one
offering.

I wonder if Presto/Stan will do the same, or fight.

I also think it will change the SVOD network metrics for FetchTV in a
rather large way with a crapload more Unicast traffic.

Thoughts?
