In 2011, Netflix started acquiring original content, such as House of Cards, Orange Is The New Black and also some movies. To access Netflix in India people use a third pool tool to go across the geo-restrictions. The website offers its service for $8.99 (about ₹600) a month in the U.S. for watching HD-quality movies and TV shows on any two screens at the same time. However, Indian prices are expected to be much lower.
