Netflix Launching In Australia In March 2015

The shows Netflix mentions in its announcement are mostly ones it produces itself, which are the one area where it generally won’t have to battle against long-term rights deals held by Foxtel and local free-to-air networks.

The timing isn’t altogether surprising, given that rival service Stan is expected to launch in February.
