- Get your content offline faster – now HD movies and shows may be downloaded in HD or SD.
- Improved video streaming performance for select KitKat devices.
- Additional app improvements and bugfixes.
Bug fixes and improvements are good to see, especially for select KitKat devices. They don’t mention which ones though. The addition of getting your content offline in SD (Standard) format is new. Previously you could only download HD content for offline viewing. We all love HD content, but when you are pulling a huge movie to your device you are going to tun into storage issues in a hurry.
The big win with the update though is the addition of  37 new countries who now have access to the service.
Benin, Bolivia, Burkina Faso, Cambodia, Cape Verde, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Denmark, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, El Salvador, Finland, Gabon, Guatemala, Haiti, Honduras, Ivory Coast, Luxembourg, Mali, Mauritius, Namibia, Netherlands, Nicaragua, Niger, Norway, Panama, Paraguay, Peru, Portugal, Rwanda, Senegal, Sweden, Togo, Uruguay, Venezuela and Zambia.
That really opens things up for Google and for consumers. However, there is still a catch. You all have access to the movie side of things, but TV availability is still only available the U.S., United kingdom, Japan and Australia.
If you happen to live in one of the aforementioned countries, be sure to head to the Play Store and grab the app. Alternatively you can head to Gappsearly and grab the APK and load it yourself.
