AFAICT, if a Netflix account owner sets up a VPN for their household, then anyone sharing the account who routes their Netflix traffic through that VPN would appear to be accessing Netflix from that household’s WAN IP address.
Is anyone doing this? Is it really that simple or are there more challenges?

No, but I use a VPN to download movies from various sites. No reason to pay for Netflix.

I have a media server, but I still need Netflix to handle the volume of crap shows my partner watches*
*many actually play in the background while she does something else, but apparently they’re necessary

It’s sad that you’re dunking on your partner like this. Sounds like she has ADHD or similar tendencies and needs something in the background to help her concentrate on tasks. Shows that don’t need your full attention work best for this. I know because I’m the same.

Why not just use something like rutracker.org ?
All the netflix releases are on there and vast majority of them can be streamed via bit torrent. Just select language defaults in your media player and you’re good to go.

Tangent, but I really wish shows could be tagged as second screen. I’m sick of atarting simething and realizing 20 minutes in that it’s designed and written to be passively listened to rather than actual entertainment
It’s insulting to be treated like a moron by a show because they assume you won’t be paying attention while watching
