Unlimited films/TV shows. I don't think there's a limit on devices, but you can only watch on one at a time.

The streaming is instant and snappy with a high quality to boot.

Sounds like a great service, I'd be very tempted to subscribe if I didn't have a 40GB bandwidth limit.

I've been streaming on multiple devices at once without any problems. Hopefully they won't bork that, but I can see why they might want to.

Netflix is pretty good! :D HD, 5.1 :wub: Black levels are a little.... off. But your eyes adjust after a bit. The selection could be a little better, but strawberry float it, £5.99 is peanuts and it should get better when it gets more popular.

Do you need gold for this on 360? If not sold.

It would be nice if the full selection was listed but I suppose I can check all that out with the free trial. The price is good though and if there is a reasonable amount of content that I'm interested in, I'll probably stay subscribed.

AFAIK it requires Gold in the US and Canada, so odds on it'll require Gold over here.

The thing I like about this the most is that it has lots of obscure stuff on it that is right up my street. Like all the excellent old skool animated programmes. :wub:

Wow this is exactly what I want. Some great TV available there, some shows I have always intended to get around to watching but never done so (the US office, Breaking Bad, Dexter to name a few). Movie selection doesn't look amazing, but it certainly works very well via the PS3 and the quality seems good for the most part.

:wub:

That's a little worrying, it's taken me ages to get my 2007 set to get the right balance of black levels and brightness.

The sooner cheap OLED sets become available the better. Hopefully Netflix can fix this issue in the meantime.

It's also got the 90s Hulk, Iron Man and Fantastic Four series, as well as a few of the animated DVD films.

I wonder if the UK will get the 3DS app this week too.

Website would not accept my normal debit card, then it cannot get to the next stage on the site. Trying to tell me something this is. They must be getting pretty high usage tonight.

Signed up, but can't sign in on the xbox, nor change my password on the netflix site.. or log out or access any other pages for that matter.

Awesome so far. :/
