    15 days after air ?

    I can get them on torrents after 1 or 2 days

      You could also get a box that just does Netflix; take a look at the offerings from Roku. I've been pretty happy with that myself. I kind of have to be; with Linux on my desktop, that's about all I get. Plus, there's no need to train your wife/girlfriend/friends/kids/etc. on how to use it; it is pretty much self explanatory.
