FlixFamily: Interesting Netflix Website Alternative With Kid-Friendly Browsing & Sub Accounts
FlixFamily is a new website that offers an alternative user interface to your Netflix account. While it's not as elegant as the Netflix UI, it includes features missing from the Netflix website, and the developer seems open to suggestions. Here's a shot of the movie browse page for TV shows: C...

Netflix Enables Video Quality Settings To Help Customers Manage Data Usage
Netflix has added the ability to control the quality (and data usage) of your Netflix streaming, helpful if you have a capped bandwidth account or are using a mobile device. Netflix added a similar setting for Canadian subscribers in February when ISP's up north started capping bandwidth. You ca...

How Many Netflix Streaming Devices Do You Own?
Netflix recently disclosed that there are more than 400 Netflix-ready devices, and Dan Rayburn from the Business of Online Video thinks the average family has about 10 Netflix-enabled devices. So it's great to see that Netflix has removed the limit of five streaming devices and now allows cust...
