Video on Demand (VOD) in Linux

[any ANONYMOUS forum user]

I can't play Netflix streaming video in Linux. Tried Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic Koala and Fedora 12.

Yes, I know all about virtualbox, HYPER-V, XEN, VMWare, dual-booting, Wine, and Moonlight.

But I would like to be able to take full advantage of a paid Video On Demand subscription without having to buy licenses do any special configuration, or spend money on equipment or licenses.

I've contacted NetFlix to politely complain, and they politely replied that they are working on the problem.

Perhaps some more calls from the Linux community could help speed up the process.

Thank you.
