Netflix Taking Streaming to Canada

Netflix is taking it streaming movie and video service outside the United States. First stop: Canada.

Video rental and streaming service Netflix has announced the first availability of its streaming service outside the United States: later this year, the company plans to launch streaming service in Canada. The service will work in a manner very similar to the U.S. service: Netflix subscribers will be able to instantly-watch a range of movies and television shows on their TVs, PCs, and a range of other consumer electronics devices (like an iPad) for a single monthly fee.

Netflix did not provide any dates for the services’ availability, saying only that it will be available “this fall.” The launch will mark the first time Netflix streaming will be available outside the U.S.; initially the service will only be available in English, but Netflix says a French language version will be available “over time.”

Canadian Netflix subscribers can go to the Netflix Canada site and sign up to receive notification when the service becomes available.

  1. shareable at 6:16pm 4th August 2011 I know its an old post but I would like to add my comment and thanks. I'm using Netflix but the selection is limited and you don't really find new releases. Anyways I guess that's what $7.99 worth. I would add for my new releases, I can borrow them from my neighbors for a low price or just exchanging and how I found this it's through Rentthing.ca, a Canadian Rental Marketplace that connects neighbors. Visit them and support our green Canadian idea Here the link: http://www.rentthings.ca
