    Quickflix is like Netflix for Australians, launches next month

    Quickflix already has a DVD-by-post service, but on the 10th of November Quickflix will launch its digital distribution platform on PC and Mac. It's already available if you have a "smart" Sony Bravia TV.

    For $15 per month you get unlimited access - as many movies as you can handle. Or as many movies as your internet plan's data allowance can handle.

    They (edit Node) wont likely do this(edit unmeter quickflix) as it competes with their Fetch TV service and its VOD capabilities unless there is some dosh in it for them .

    wont likely do what? the thing that the OP is stating that they ARE doing??

    Ahh nvm, chips clarified you were talking about 'node. But then, in theory, iView also competes with FetchTV.

    iview doesn't compete with FetchTV cause FetchTV is shit and ivew is not.
    GU - giving everyone the freedom to post whatever they want...
    so long as we can all pay them out if they missed an earlier thread on the same topic!

    Just looking at FetchTV - anything that requires a propriety set-top box for on-demand video is a piece of shit.
