[Electronics-talk] Netflix

[Brent Harding]

I wonder if you caught the bug many of us have on one device or another 
where the audio description simply is not an option on that menu in 
Daredevil? I've heard on other lists that some people's Android devices are 
not allowing the AD track to bee in the menu either, so it might just be a 
bug at Netflix's end. For watching stuff like this, I'd rather be airplaying 
it out of my old 4S since the battery has already seen its better day, and I 
mostly leave it plugged in to my laptop's USB port. For me, the 6 is the 
only thing I have gotten the AD option to work on, despite repeated signing 
in and out.
