Netflix in Africa !

Last Wednesday, NETFLIX announced that it had launched in 130 new countries excluding CHINA entering a major milestone in its global expansion quest.

What does this mean? Apart from knocking yourself for missing out on Netflix’s stock when it was still affordable (Netflix stock rose to % after this announcement), this means you can curl up on a couch and watch all re-runs, movies, TV episodes until thy kingdom come.
The image below shows the countries NETFLIX now streams in. As you can see, it’s pretty much every global country with the exception of CHINA.

Although we’re not sure how NETFLIX’s content will be distributed across country lines, we’re hoping that it’ll be the same as what is being provided in United States – NETFLIX’s parent country.

Therefore, we at BLULOFT will try to publish a weekly segment titled “WHAT TO WATCH ON NETFLIX”. So stay tuned and get ready to TV!

  1. Thanks for the article. Although this is great news, the new Netflix regions will lack content compared to the US Netflix. If you want to get a good value for your money, you can use services like Unotelly and access all regions of Netflix. You get about 1000% more content with a minimum cost.
