Ubuntu LTS is a good choice. Stable, secure and can update in 
background. You can configure it to auto update too (without 
forcing reboots).

As for Netflix, there is no native app on Linux, you have to use 
the browser, so you could set up a bookmark on the desktop or in 
the application launcher.

Wine has progressed a lot so if there is some software that is 
not replaceable, you can install wine and try running it.

As for the iPhone, without iTunes, it can't do anything with 
Windows. iTunes allows for backing up data to the local computer, 
and syncing movies / songs / playlists that are not purchased 
from Apple. You can set up her iPhone to back up to iCloud 
(probably on by default). As for songs, apparently Rythmbox can 
sync with iPhones, but you will have to verify.
