Thanks for your answer, but I bought an Apple TV today and during the configuration process it requested my Apple ID...until then everything Ok but when I tried to get to Netflix the only option to open it is login with an Apple ID or buy a new one.

Can you help me log on with another account? (Not Apple Id)

Thanks in advance

The Apple ID is used for iTunes movies, music and tv shows as well as App Store downloads and homesharing local media. all apps are developed and supported by the content owner and will have seperate logins. For the sample, you can download the fox now app and watch clips but it requires an active cable/satellite subscription for full episodes. Netflix is a seperate company and has a seperate subscription account - you get 7 days free before they charge you. https://www.netflix.com/getstarted

That was originally the case when Netflix appeared on the older machines - later you were allowed to sign-up for Netflix services (for AppleTV/iOS devices) directly using your Apple ID for payment on a rolling basis with a 30 day free trial (in UK, maybe different elsewhere).
