No idea about netflix. Personally, I use youtube-dl to download videos
from various sites and watch them in MediaPlayer.
I have a "yt" alias in my "profile" that makes it really easy to get a
high quality version:
alias yt="youtube-dl --continue --restrict-filenames --no-part --no-
cache-dir --format best"
I also just copy the video URL into the clipboard and then invoke this
script via double-click to download the video onto the desktop:
#!/bin/sh
cd ~/Desktop
clip=$(clipboard -p)
youtube-dl --continue --restrict-filenames --no-part --no-cache-dir --
format best "$clip"
addattr META:url "$clip" "$(youtube-dl --restrict-filenames --no-part
--no-cache-dir --format best --get-filename "$clip")"
The last line adds the download URL as an attribute to the file, which
can be convenient sometimes.
Oh, and welcome to Haiku! :)

Humdinger
