    Just received an email from Humax telling me that Netflix is now available as an option through on demand on their Freeview box.
    Does anyone know whether this is likely to be an option on the Freesat box any time soon?

    It's the Humax YouView box (DTR-T1000 - T2000 etc) that has just acquired Netflix, not the Humax Freeview box (HDR-2000T)

    I haven't heard anything recently about Netflix coming to Freesat.

    Edit.

    When I referred to it being a ''Freeview' box, I was making reference to it being a box you plug into an aerial as opposed to a satellite dish but thanks for the additional clarification James.

    Thanks also for the link, Which gives us the impression that we may be benefiting from the Netflix 'app' on Freesat at some point in the future too. My only concern is the speed Humax seems to move at. Perhaps we'll see it by the end of 2016??

    It would be up to Freesat, not Humax, I suppose.

    And Netflix. The Techradar Expert Reviews article says at the moment the Freesat audience is too small to meet Netflix's requirements.
