Can one change your sub or do you just need the UK region and the Sub is also for the UK region?
I'm still in my free month I'll just cancel the US one then and move to the UK one.

Was thinking of getting a NowTv box from the UK. That should sort out his needs and I think one can load Netflix on it? Alternatively Roku. He prefers UK TV though.

Just use UnoTelly to switch regions. Restart your device and open Netflix again. Keep paying the US Subscription, no need to register on the other regions.

Ye - just change the Netflix region in Unotelly. Good to go.

No need to change your sub. Just log into your unotelly app or website and change the region:

Perfect, thank you guys 
btw: Seems like Netflix is not on NowTV. But does it really matter? Seems like NowTV is pretty solid on it's own. With SKY SPORT (Very important)

Netflix you pay 1 flat fee per month and watch as much as you want. You only need a pc or a device to load the Netflix app on.

I'll try and answer in order:
1. For streaming to your TV you will need a decoder of sorts (I use the PS3 for the kids) You also get devices like Roku and what not. For STD definition you need about 2Mbps line speed. And prob Wifi router not a must but teh best.
2. Costs, Internet sub + Line rental (If applicable) Subscription to Unotelly (You get 1 month free on current promo ($4.00 per month + or minus). Netflix subs start at $ 8.99 per month (Standard Def with 2 screens viewing at once). I have not given Hulu+ a go yet no idea what those rates are.
3. All content are free to stream. You get get an option on Netflix to watch new releases (Movies) as well at I think $ 2.00 extra per month. If you take the 4 screens+HD it's $12.00 a month
Little setup involved but it's covered very well on this form and easy to do.

You will need Unotelly to bypass regional blocks.
Samsung Smart tvs can view Netflix content via the Netflix app.

I have no idea how the Smart Tv's work I don't own one sorry. Maybe someone else can answer that? You use Unotelly for region as currently Netflix and Hulu is region locked. So Unotelly does that for you. The thing here is though that I have not seen sport streaming on any of those. For that I would recommend you get a NowTV device. Then you have access to SkySport. For all your Sporting needs like Rugby and what not
6 Sport channels.I suspect this is the reason why less than half of Mybb users do not have have Dstv and therefore MC does not care or worry about us...everyone is streaming all their content off the internet for 13$ and line rental with uncapped internet.
I gave up Dstv when they started reaching R500 a month.no way im paying that insane amount of money for poor programming.Piratebay became my best friend.then torrentreactor,Kickass torrents and now Eztv.And now I've stumbled into a problem.Hard-drive space is non existent.I download faster than I can watch and delete.

One of the main reasons streaming is better than downloading.
Its not that easy.I use internet during weekends and late nights.then its fine for downloading and streaming.But I'm not the only person there.During the day my line is shaped to death and you not getting even a crumb out of that 56k dial-up...

Then you have a crap ISP.
I stream all day and night. Even on days when I'm home during the week, not a problem at all.
