Netflix Originals now integrated in Apple TV app on Apple TV hardware in America

Apple finally seems to have reached an agreement to integrate Netflix content – Netflix Originals, precisely – into the Apple TV app in America. Netflix Originals content now appears in the Apple TV app’s Continue Watching section, search results, and its Watchlist.

Currently, Netflix integration works only with our US Apple ID. We were not offered the option when using our EU Apple ID…
