Elliot KirkI'd like to inform you that (it's very likely that your team already know this), please implement DRM for Netflix completely before Edge insider went release.

Currently, by pushing ctrl+alt+shift+D or ctrl+alt+shift+Q, you can see the bitrate of your playing video.

For Edge and Netflix metro app, it will be 1080p and video bitrate somewhere between 2500~8000. However, for Firefox, Chrome, and Edge insider, although it STILL CAN BE 1080p, the bitrate is anywhere from 900-2000 - abysmal, and not watchable.

Since Edge insider with chromium engine will be replacing Edge soon, please solve this (I know it's mid-low priority) before its release - or we won't have any possible way to "watch Netflix with highest bitrate possible AND be able to adjust speed(by tweaking DOM object document.querySelector('video')) on Windows PC."

Thank you, opensource and Microsoft rocks.
