I've been using Netflix on my Nexus 7 almost daily and it works very well. Unfortunately, the rear speakers are kinda hard to hear so I use earbuds.

Multiple people have said this and I don't understand. I've been very impressed with the speakers. Their actually better than the gtab 2 and the Asus transformer I had.

The speakers aren't very loud, especially with the Netflix app and they face away from me, so they're hard to hear. This is worse if the dialog is subdued in the video I'm watching. Often I'll find myself putting my palm behind the speaker(s) trying to reflect the sound back toward me.  :(  But I guess that's what earbuds are for.

Well I can say I haven't watched Netflix on it yet, just movies from Google play. Compare the Netflix app volume to the transformers movie that came on the tablet. It may be a Netflix volume issue and not a hardware thing because I've been very impressed with the speaker.

You're right, it's a Netflix app issue; it's not as loud as other apps. Still, I wish the speaker(s) faced forward.
