I currently have an Apple TV here in NY attached to my LED HDTV and it works great, especially for Netflix. I want to get my parents an Apple TV in Cali and attach it to their LED HDTV as well so that they can watch my Netflix subscription. Will it be possible for them to stream my Netflix in Cali, even though I have it attached in NY for my own Netflix subscription? I have the unlimited streaming w/ 1 DVD rental subscription. This will help me determine if I should get them an Apple TV or not. Thanks a bunch!
Got a tip for us?

Theoretically, the one DVD plan is limited to one person viewing a streamed program at a time (but up to 6 registered players are allowed). However, they don't seem to enforce that restriction.

I'm not worried about that, they already see my Que on the computer. I'm just making sure they can see netflix on TV if connected to Apple TV in Cali like I do in NY? The reason I am asking is because when I connected my Apple TV in Cali, I had to reset it in order for the Netflix to work on their TV because it seems like it was associated to my TV/Apple TV connection in NY.
