"Netflix currently offers movie downloads in the US, but only to punters who sign up to its all-you-can-eat DVD mail plan."
That's not true, Netflix offers instant downloads to ANY subscriber, it doesn't matter which plan you're signed up for, if it is all you can eat or one at a time.

"BTW You can put fixed DNS addreses into windows as well, probably easier than linux for that."
Probably not. One command from CLI.
print "nameserver 192.168.1.1" > resolv.conf
Where 192.168.1.1 is the name server you wish to define, change as your network requires. (Use official name servers from your ISP, not your default router else you gain nothing from this exercise.)
