    Thumbs up Netflix partnering with XBOX

    This is sweet:

    Xbox pacts with Netflix

    If you have XBOX Live and a Netflix account, we will soon be able to access their online content! Pumped.

    I've never used the streaming feature on my PC but I would definitely stream through my XBOX.

    The web stream is nice. I use it from time to time. How it will look on the big screen may be interesting.

    I currently use Windows Media Center to stream Netflix to a large TV - it looks great, so no worries on that front.

    I guess I don't see how this is a big announcement since you can currently plug your laptop into your TV and do the same thing. I guess it would just reduce the work of plugging in an extra cable.

    Re: Netflix partnering with XBOX

    And having to unplug and then plug in the laptop everytime you wanted to do something besides watch movies.

    I don't personally have a need for netflix, but it's still pretty cool, and a good get for the Xbox.

    That and I utilize the digital audio through a fiber optic cable on my XBOX... it will sound much better with this partnership.
