Movie Streaming Platform Netflix Launches Offline Downloading

Netflix today announced a feature that fans of the streaming service have been clamoring for: offline viewing. Starting right now, you can download (some) movies and TV shows and watch them when you’re on an airplane or any other place where internet access is limited. This doesn’t cost extra.
