The problem is that some users travel and they try to watch Netflix using
their home account in far away lands.


Interestingly, audible.com (the audio book people) actually warn you about
this up front - they point out on their site that many titles may not be
available in foreign countries and therefore you should download your
audiobooks before you leave your home country.

In other words, it's not just Netflix that has this problem…

Yes and no… Audible at least let’s you download them before you leave.

Netflix, not so much…
