I’ve just released the first beta of Smartflix, a Mac app that lets you easily watch Netflix content from any country.
Here are some of the key features: - The ENTIRE Netflix library (~14,000 movies & TV Shows episodes) - 1080p support (Google Chrome and Firefox only support 720p) - Manual quality selection - Media Keys support - Mini-player (this one is pretty cool)

How it works It proxifies some www.netflix.com requests when needed to bypass location restrictions. The stream and most of the heavy other assets comes directly from Netflix. It is WAY better and safer than VPNs and “smart DNS” services (both potentially routing and/or intercepting every requests your computer makes at any time).
There is a live chat inside the app for feedback or support, if you have any questions or suggestions we can talk there.
By the way, all the Back to the Future movies are available right now. That’s what I will be watching tonight!
(PS: Windows version is coming soon) (PS 2: It is completely free for now, until you guys and I are satisfied with the quality of the app)
