End user feedback (Ryan)

I am glad that the service is now available in the UAE. I no longer need to use a proxy or a smart dns . I have had the service for a couple of months and it is really good.

If you are using Etisalat‘s Videopack subscription of 39 AED, you should at least try Netflix . Check out what they are offering for the same price (9,99 USD). Remember that the 1st month is free.

Share this with your friends and family, since the service has become widely available. The total number of countries where Netflix can be accessed to is now 190.
