For the record ... using the latest Google Chrome on CentOS-7.1503 (our
7.1 release in testing right now), allows Netflix to play just fine on
CentOS-7.  What I have installed when I tested it:

nss-3.16.2.3-5.el7.i686
nss-3.16.2.3-5.el7.x86_64
google-chrome-stable-41.0.2272.101-1.x86_64  (from google)

That obviously does not work on 32 bit .. it does work inside a docker
container containing CentOS-7 on CentOS-6 though.  No need to use Debian
or Ubuntu in the Docker container :)

Thanks,
Johnny Hughes
