After what seems like an eternity of waiting, Netflix has finally confirmed its Australian launch date. From March 24, Aussies will no longer have to pay for a VPN in order to stream the latest season of House of Cards without delay.
Complete with a solid lineup of Netflix content from launch, the local service will see apps switched on for iOS, Android, Apple TV, Sony's PS4 and PS3 consoles, Microsoft's Xbox 360 and Xbox One, Nintendo's Wii U, Chromecast, Fetch TV, and a wide range of Smart TVs from Samsung, Sony, LG, Philips, Panasonic and HiSense.
In a pleasantly surprising development for iiNet customers, Netflix has confirmed that the streaming service will be unmetered for users of the nation's second largest ISP. No doubt this will be particular useful when taking advantage of those 4K streams.
Open your minds and your wallets
The local launch date announcement was a little bit quiet on pricing, unfortunately, specifying that the pricing will be confirmed at launch.
It did confirm that Australian Netflix customers will have the option of three pricing tiers – a single SD stream, HD quality streamable to two devices, or the four-device 4K option.
Netflix has also confirmed that gift cards in $20, $30 and $50 denominations will be available at Aussie retailers like Woolworths, Coles, Big W, 7-Eleven, Australia Post and Officeworks.
Also in the promo announcements is the bundling of a three month Netflix subscription with an Xbox One console purchase from March 24. Vodafone customers in New Zealand will also receive "several months" of prepaid service on specific plans.
While the pricing will be key in Netflix's local success, it seems that the US streaming giant has already managed to take the lead with its ISP deal with iiNet and its suite of apps across multiple devices.
- This news definitely won't help local rival Quickflix...
