[MartinHSabag]

מסתבר שלחברת NETFLIX תוכניות הרבה יותר אגרסיביות מאשר "סתם להיות אפליקציה" על מכשירי כמו טלוויזיות, נגני בלוריי, קונסולות משחקים וסטרימרים, היא גם מתכננת שעל השלט יהיה כפתור ייעודי, כך שכל מכשיר שיכול להזרים תכנים מנטפליקס יכלול את הכפתור.

כבר היום לנטפליקס שיתוף פעולה עם יצרנים כמו: Panasonic, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, Toshiba, Dynex, Haier, Memorex, Iomega ו-Roku.
