With NetFlix already the world’s number movie streaming site, what more does the company need to make sure it remains on top? One of the key advantages to being a NetFlix member is the fact that you can logon to your NetFlix count from almost any country in the world that supports the platform. Most other streaming sites do not let you log in unless you are in your home country which is arguably one reason Netflix has overtaken them.

It is actually quite strange that an HBO account holder that pays a monthly fee is unable to log on to their account while they are on holiday. How does this benefit HBO? The company will only allow you to sign up with an address and payment details within a location in which HBO accepts citizens to become a member. Therefore, the only people that would be logging on from overseas are their own customers. It is just very strange and probably why so many people prefer Netflix.

Netflix does have one drawback despite the ability to log on from almost anywhere in the world. That disadvantage is that you may not get the same movies and series as you would in your home country. An example of this would be a US citizen visiting somewhere like Italy. Loggin in using the US username and password will send you to an Italian version of Netflix. You would get lots of Italian movies and series with a few popular Netflix movies and series that are globally approved.

Now, this is great for local cultural research. If you can read English then great because you can watch some local Italian series with English subtitles. All that being said, what happens if you want to watch your US version of Netflix after you are done researching the local version of Netflix?

The answer is simple, and another reason Netflix is so popular.

Use a VPN to access your local version of Netflix. Now another reason Netflix is so great is that the website admin staff do not care if you are accessing the website via a VPN. Other similar streaming websites will go out of their way to detect an abnormal login or a VPN and temporarily ban your account. Again very odd and we cannot understand the reasoning behind this.

On the other hand, Netflix is super open about how you log on and where you log in from. Thanks to VPN technology, you can log onto your local Netflix site by connecting to a server in your home country and then logging into your Netflix account.

VPN technology is becoming very popular not just because it gets people around geo-blocks, but also because the connection is safe, secure, and encrypted. The VPN software or servers never record any of the activity as long as you are not looking up obviously bad websites that we will not mention, but we think you know what we are talking about.

Have a look at VPNNetflix gratis for more information about how you can begin with a free VPN. If you like what you see, then you can advance your package to a paid VPN version where you will get lots more server options, more secure protocols, and often you will be given faster speeds. Just having the choice of more servers will give you increased speed.

This is a technology that is going to continue booming – especially amongst the movie streaming fans of websites like Netflix.
