            @Alpha-q: People normally say 72 virgins rather than 72 angels, but it’s a mistranslation of the Quran - the correct translation says that what awaits the mujahideen in paradise is in fact 72 grapes.

            Which is also good.

                @manobik: A top comment from that video: “The deeper one listens to "al-hoor al-'iyn" the more obvious it becomes. These are not words that come from "God ", but from the fantasies of man (men).”

                I didn’t mean to offend Islam or Muslims with the above comment, just that hur is typically translated as “white”, which colloquially meant “white grapes”. It would have been a demagogue who asserted the meaning of maiden, to instigate believers’ commitment to jihad.

    Only probably because Pakistani currency has crashed so much ? If it crashes more then plan will be more cheaper

    • +1

      100%

      • Yes, a 100% crash would be cheapest, but come on, this is a widely used currency. OzBargainers shouldn’t be so selfish.

      Netflix will raise prices like they do now in Turkiye

      • Inflation rate in Turkey is quite high (60-80% currently)

    I share my sun at the moment , might be worth subscribing now

    • +60

      Woah buddy check your privilege we can't all have own our private sun, most of us just have to use the communal one in the sky xD

      • +6

        I think he's implying the sun is becoming a subscription only service, wouldn't be surprised

        • +4

          Great, will have to just use moon to leech reflected sunlight from paying subscribers. Variable light quality and not much warmth, but free is free.

        • Holy cr@p don't give the govt or corpos any ideas man… Next thing you know they find a way to monetize sunlight.

          • @bigbadboogieman: New subscription service, with basic being only light. The Pro subscription includes light and heat.

        • That'll be why the billionaire twits are doing playing Icarus with their penis enlargement toys.

      When did you claim the sun?

      • +6

        GeoBren landed on it and set a flag there.

        What's that? It can't be since its too hot on the suns surface? Don't worry they went there at night.

    Any way to move an existing overseas Netflix account with existing credit (paid in advance using gift cards) or best to wait till there's no credit left and create a new account?

  • Do they run 4k plans?

    • +26

      There are no 4k displays in Pakistan, so 1080p is the highest you could go. :P

      • +3

        I actually didn’t know that wow

      • O C'mon

      • Actually there are. All my goats in the barn have their own 8k monitors showing free porn. I get more milk and kids (goat babies) as my return on investment!

          Sounds about right.

    How much for premium 4K? Can you buy 12 months in advance or is it month to month?

  • +5

    I'd buy that for a dollar

  • i heard netflix bringing the anti password sharing thing that will require you to enter a physical address and then they will track the IP against this address vs other IPs accessing the same account to workout what's unusual activity.

    • That relies on Geolocation of IP addresses and that's not very accurate at all.

      M my current IP address locates to a different state than the one in in

    • They have been flipflopping on this as they are likely gauging the backlash from its user base.

      • +1

        I swear I saw the other day they walked it back and removed the references from their site etc

        • Like i said likely because they are trying to gauge user base backlash.

          • @xoom: I read recently that they just won't be able to implement it successfully. They might end up having away from it completely.

  • +9

    Wait how do you pay? Wasn't the reason Pakistan wasn't possible was because you need to pay with gift cards or local bank account, and gift cards don't exist?

    • THIS. but the subs is good for on the go.

    • +8

      How is this illegal? It's no doubt against their TOS, but there's no copyright infringement happening. It's just a loophole in the fact their billing service is separate from their content itself, so you can access the pricing for countries where they set a lower price while still getting the same content. Switching on netflix is much more convenient than torrenting for most people. Although I find myself going back to pirating because I don't want to pay for 4+ streaming services just to watch the 1-2 good shows that are on each one.

      • I'm not sure but this requires you to put in fake identification information which could be considered fraud maybe?

      • -2

        How is this illegal? It's no doubt against their TOS, but there's no copyright infringement happening.

        It is copyright infringement. Netflix buys the license to distribute content under specific terms, you are lying to obtain the service, and don't have a valid license to do so.

        • ok, seems like a stretch but makes sense.

      • Convenience is why streaming TV and music services have become so popular. Piracy requires more effort (waiting for slow torrents to finish, looking for a specific album on a music site, dealing with file lockers, having to find special programs to rip music streams, sorting files into directories, metadata tagging, etc).

    • Spotify doesn't make it possible but they do. The question is: Why?

    • +1

      You've spoken like a true non-Oz bargainer! 🤦‍♂️
      Also, it's stupid how you're comparing attaining a legitimate paid service vs. illegally attaining free copyrighted material.

    • +3

      Seriously, if you are going to break their terms of services and access it illegally via a VPN

      Nothing about that is illegal

      • +1

        Unethical but not illegal.

        • +5

          Why is it unethical, major corporations feel nothing about shipping labour to the cheapest market. Many jobs have been offshored. This is just the consumer offshoring their content provider.

          • +1

            @tomfool: Because its about a right or wrong behaviour.

            TOS says you can do so and so. Breaking it by doing otherwise is deemed wrong based on the TOS.

            This has nothing to do with jobs being offshored. Its how they want to conduct their business.

            The TOS is not illegal. Neither are you breaking TOS. Hence unethical. Its a moral dilemma.

            • -1

              @xoom: Unethical, yet here we all are reading this from phones made from child labour.

              • @Cusack: You certain about that? Bold statement require a source. Didn't neg you by the way.

                You either call out which ones are made by child labour and your source stating so.

                Im certain you are not saying all of them.

                • @xoom: It's the batteries. They all use cobalt which the vast majority is mined from DRC. Easy for companies to ignore coz they don't make it themselves.

                    @Cusack: Just for everyone who is not aware. It is illegal for any child below 16 to work in DRC.

                    In Congo, child labor is prohibited by national law, with the minimum age set at 16.

                    That being said.

                    Children work in the mines in order to be able to buy food and clothes or simply to pay for school. Yes while illegal. A choice of starving or working in the mines is seen as an opportunity. It has become a necessary evil is what im alluding to. Sure we can lobby for DRC to police this child labour laws better but like i said i doubt things would change anytime soon.

                    Going back to netflix and accessing other markets with cheaper charges. Its not illegal. You are not breaking any laws either from the country you are watching it from or the country you seemed to have obtained it from.

                    You could be breaking their terms of service but there are no legal ramifications for that. The worst they can do is ban you from said service.

            • @xoom: Is it right behavior or ethical for major corps to offshore jobs to where labour is cheaper? They just want to exploit technology when it works for them, but as soon as the consumer wants to exploit it then its unethical.

              • @tomfool: It is unethical for them to exploit this also but as they say.

                This is business

                https://youtu.be/M7AGB7itYFk

                • @xoom: After knowing the truth, it's unethical for them to exploit and it's unethical for us to buy. We are all guilty

    • are you saying when a person from Pakistan (who watches or used to watch Netflix pakistan, moved to australia) Now need to make a brand new account just to use netflix in australia ??

      Why wont he be allowed to use his pakistani netflix account in australia ??

      I doubt this double account creation is against T&C s more than earlier option.

    Pay with new digital bank account.

    Can someone explain a bit more on this?

    • -1

      Apple Pay or Google Pay I assume.

    • Just open a wise account (there are others too) and you can pay in a lot more currencies.

      • Wise account is not accepted. Any other ideas?

        • I got this reply from their customer service

          "Netflix will accept only the same country payment methods."

          How to bypass that?

        • Sorry no idea!

    • +1

      Pakistani citizens residing overseas are able to open a bank account digitally and manage it online as long as they can prove they are overseas residents. A quick google search with term "Pakistan digital bank account" shows more detail. I am guessing they can then make payments to netflix using those accounts.

      • If you get Visa or MC with that then possibly yes.

      • I thought they were saving accounts meant for long term. Not everyday transactions. I may be wrong though.

    Has anyone found a solution for Tidal not accepting non-Argentinian CC's?

    • I switched to using my wise card after my Westpac card stopped working with tidal.

    • +1

      I have ARS deposited in my wise account and it works fine.

      Just a bit worried it will stop working once my ARS is is used up as Wise now doesnt allow transfer of ARS into the account.

      • Every time I use wise to pay in currencies I don’t have available it just converts automatically using whatever currency I have available on my account t. Is that not the case for ARS?
