Hello!
People are working on enabling Netflix in Chromium and they have come up with a solution. However, until the Chromium patches to enable DRM are available in a form that the average user can install without having to compile things, those who use Netflix are stuck with Chrome.
Sure, there are VMs and the hack using wine and Silverlight, but playing Netflix content takes up a lot of resources in and out of itself, and the added overhead of either of these can (and often does) make for choppy video playback - especially on resource-challenged systems...
