Just torrent your media and play it in VLC. Works better, without WINE, and without subsidizing these dicks.
The "terms" are that I download shit for free.
I suggest trying to find and support media that is offered without DRM in the first place, if that is what you consider important.
So if you care, buy DVDs and ignore DRM afflicted distribution channels.
The problem with Netflix is not just in them using DRM, but in them actively proliferating it, up to pushing to build it into HTML standard. While the general trend goes in the right direction, Netflix pushes into the wrong one.
That said, it may be possible to reverse engineer it.
It's more like Netflix is one of the few services that many people wish to use where they strangely enough have chosen to ignore Linux.
Netflix is using a lot of open source software: Linux, Cassandra, Zookeeper, Java, etc.
And then they sign a sleazy backroom deal with Microsoft and only support silverlight, which is a technology dead on arrival. I don't get it.
