NetFlix now plays fine in Chrome, at least the unstable version. I use |
| 9 |
no special flags |
| 10 |
and get it directly from portage. No overlays, no license files. From |
| 11 |
my POV it's as |
| 12 |
open source as most other stuff but I haven't investigated that in any |
| 13 |
depth. Yes, the |
| 14 |
content is DRM'ed but with (I think) HTML5 support in a browser I no |
| 15 |
longer need to |
| 16 |
run a VM to watch movies. Just log in. |
