Netflix confirms launch in Australia on March 24
US streaming giant Netflix has announced its Australian launch date as March 24, a week earlier than had previously been reported.
Netflix announced back in November that it would launch in March, with reports suggesting it would come on March 31.
“Many Aussies and Kiwis have heard a lot about Netflix over the years, and we’re excited they’ll get to experience our unique blend of Netflix original content, local series and films, and popular movies and TV shows from around the world, all for a low monthly price,” said Reed Hastings CEO of Netflix.
The service is set to include the new series of House of Cards, released in the US over the weekend, as well as other original series Marco Polo and Bloodline.

Finally!
And by the way folks, you can pay for your Netflix Australia account and then VPN it to ANY OTHER NETFLIX REGION to get their full catalog of content.
Great system, huh?
Ill still torrent – its free!
Why are they launching 3+ weeks after House of Cards has launched. HOC would have been a huge trial driver but most of the die hards will be watching it via other means before NFLX launches.
