Hi, what does this mean exactly, would it not allow 4K to pass through, if it was above the specs you mention?

The mi box has 3.5mm but it's like a headphone jack, not an optical output.

Hey Spackbace, if something was wrong with optical output, Netflix wouldn't play in 5.1 via optical would it?

Drphods commented on Palmolive Hand Wash Refill 1L $3.25 @ Coles / Amazon AU (free delivery with Prime)
Good deal, cheapest I found was 2L handwash at officeworks for $10.25. $6-$8 per litre seems average in Coles and Woolies.

I have subscribed to IP Vanish. I can't find any servers for Turkey or Argentina, am I missing something?

Try blue planet II. It looks amazing on my new TV. I get good streaming on Netflix and my adsl2 gets 11MB/s. NBN should be perfect.
