#2> Thanks to recent efforts at Netflix and Canonical, Ubuntu now supports watching Netflix with Chrome version 37.
Funnily, Chrome 38 is now out (http://googlechromereleases.blogspot.com/2014/10/stable-chan...) after an emergency release, which shows how long these press releases take to plan.

So... yeah.
UPDATE: Looks like the problem was I had an old version of NSS installed (see http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2014/09/ubuntu-rolls-updated-nss-...). Upgraded that with
sudo apt-get install --only-upgrade libnss3

I assume it works on other distros also.

#9I'm willing to bet it will work in any Linux distro that has the newest Chrome installed, so Mint and Arch Linux will probably also work. Haven't confirmed yet though.

I guess that is because WidevineCDM is missing (proprietary "Content Decryption Module").
