US subscription video-on-demand provider Netflix will trial a self-regulation system for the classification of content that it streams in Australia. The pilot program is aimed at overcoming Australia’s often lengthy process for classifying films and TV programs, to ensure that local Netflix customers can view content at the same time as it is made available overseas. The trial will include the use of an online tool that will apply Australian classification ratings to Netflix content.
