My TV and my Blueray player both stream it. It's pretty good, never really seen a hiccup out of it. The TV also streams Youtube, Picasa(o sp?), Vudu and something else.
i think im gonna have to look into all this for myself, as going to the redbox and seeing nothing but old movies is getting pretty boringQuote:

We're on 6mb cable and don't have a problem.

I was just reading thsi article and this guys seems to have it figured out. Uses an HD antenna for TV and Netflix for everything else that he can't find for free on the internets.
I use the hell out of Netflix for watching Dexter
I use it on my 360.
I do not have any pauses but my connection speed limits it to being in standard def instead of HD.
I use it when im bored, sometimes i can get them in HD
I use it on my ps3. 12mb connection and zero probs.
the selection of movies is crap. NOTHING even remotely new
I used to watch it on my Xbox 360 (g/f has a Netflix account), but my subscription to Live ran out, and I didn't feel like renewing it for now.
So we watch it on her Wii, it's not to bad. The only time it stops during a movie/show is if one of us just so happen to also be on a computer using the internet too as our wireless internet isn't the fastest speed to probably handle both.

I stream it through my LG Blu-Ray player and it works great. I could do so through my PS3, but the audio cables from the LG are far better.
Yeah I've used it through xbox, pretty sweet but as others said you won't get new movies through it, but it's still nice for the price if you're into chilling with movies. I'm shopping for a new blu-ray player that has network/divx/netflix capabilities too...
I have it for my 360 and agree the selection is shit "BUT" if you have a problem with the selection then go on your computer and pick what you want :yup: Simple and awesome! Never had a hiccup at all yet with shitty ass Charter :dunno:
I forgot to say that in my post too. The selection is low at times, and doesn't update as much as i'd like it to, but as blackSS01 said you can go to your PC (or as my g/f does on her phone) and search and add it and it will show up on your console.Quote:

i think i like it enough to suscribe...
use it mostly for my kids shows, she loves astroboy, Ill have to check out what tv shows they have that I want to watch.
I use it mainly for Top Gear and American muscle car but I watched all of the instant queque *spell so I have the others mailed, just finished the one where they come out to the U.S. and drive the ZR1, challenger, and CTS-V. I love jeremy's reactions to the vette especially since he was talkin trash before
