As far as I know, browsers will only do Widevine L3. Meaning you won't get resolutions past 720p or maybe 1080p (depending on service). That's probably fine a small screen like the deck. Less fine for a 4k TV.

It doesnt advertise itself as a media device. Id love for it to somehow do it, but the high seas is the only way.

it advertises its self as a full PC though

So do other Linux PCs on the market, but they can't help Netflix's shitty DRM.
