When will I be able to watch Netflix in Firefox 64? What's the timeline for this to work and who has to make the changes, Netflix or Mozilla?

Netflix will use EME video in 64-bit Firefox. Mozilla is working with Adobe and Netflix now. EME for 32-bit Firefox is available in Firefox's pre-release channels. 64-bit should be available in the next couple days.

This will be for all operating systems?

Yes. Mozilla and Adobe are focusing on the most popular platform first (Windows Vista and later). Once we get it right there, support for OS X, Linux, and Windows XP will follow.

BSD?

If you want the Adobe binary blob stuff to work, you can probably use the Linux layer in {Free,Net}BSD.

Probably not BSD. Does Netflix work with Chrome on BSDs?
