Netflix on Google Nexus 7

[jhuijnen]

Hi,
I've installed the Netflix app on my Nexus 7 and was wondering if I can pin movies onto the Nexus for when I'm out and about, out of Wifi reach? I can't see anywhere on the Netflix app that would allow me to do that.
Many thanks,
J.

I might be completely wrong but I don't think NetFlix works like that. It's a streaming app and their secret sauce for delivering content is always a live CBR connection with very limited hardware buffering. This means the content is never really on your device (except in small blocks that are meant for buffering and once sent to the screen, the buffer is cleared and ready for more). It's not downloaded and stored but rather sent constantly from the service infrastructure. So, in short... Not, you can't do that.

Netflix is streaming only. No ability to watch offline.
