  1. Though this seems like a good a thing. But why would MS allow this? They have they're own catalog of movies and offer the service already. Sure it may not be completely but new movies are being added every week.

    Just noticed the advantage over the XBOX Service, one time fee of $3 is not bad. There must be some kind of catch though.

  3. An Xbox 360 "red ring of death" will certainly ruin the movie. The Xbox 360 is the Vista of game consoles, it should be avoided. Microsoft obviously can't make quality hardware either:

    Dude, we get the point you hate MS. But this is a story about Netflix coming to MS XBox 360 and Sony Playstation3. Come on man you don't have to bash every MS Submission on Mixx. I like LInux to, there are some thing I don't like about it the same I don't like things about MS. Same with Apple. But I don't bash the point into the ground every time I get a chance.

  6. @SilentJay74 - I don't "bash" every MS Submission on Mixx. People reading this article should be warned about the risks of owning an Xbox 360, it is an extremely unreliable low quality product. People wanting a game console to watch Netflix movies should get a PS3. The Wii would also be a good choice, if Netflix ever supports it.
