I maybe wrong but I don't think Netflix has these restrictions just to fuck with people and ruin their day. It would seem from their implementation point of view, simply having same content everywhere would be easier. I suspect these are enforced by licensing rules from those who own the content. Anyone want to confirm that?
This might get Netflix in trouble if those who own the contents will see it, see Netflix not to anything about and either increase their fees or refuse to let Netflix license the contents.
