Panasonic, Sharp, Samsung and Sony are some of the manufactures which will start selling remote controls with `Netflix' buttons from this spring.

The company said the move will allow subscribers to access movies with one click.

Commenting on the Netflix button on remotes, chief product officer Neil Hunt said, "It's simply a matter of pushing the Netflix button to instantly watch any of the vast selection of TV shows and movies available to stream from Netflix."
