Originally I expected Netflix to skyrocket when they expanded so aggressively internationally. I disagree that they will have to spend a ton on marketing - they are getting a lot of free press and many people overseas were already familar with Netflix or even using it through vpns or IP blockers.
But I ( and my friends overseas) were disappointed that Netflix's offering abroad is not the same as Netflix here in the US. It was limited to a handful of shows and movies and didn't include any of the original content like House of Cards to which you refer.
