Nevertheless, users still get the option to download media locally which they can consume [...]

We have seen it all – an implanted recording of life, a technology game show, miniaturisation and so much more. Each episode of the series deals with one aspect of non-existent technology. The episodes are based in either [...]
Marvel and Netflix have decided to pull the plug on Daredevil after it’s third season. The show follows in the footsteps of other Marvel shows such as Iron Fist and Luke Cage.

Jessica Jones and The Punisher are the only two Marvel shows that are running at the moment. Netflix has said that the three seasons [...]
