I am trying to see if you need to subscribe or how you pay to see all those movies. Looks really neat.

40,000+ movies and TV episodes available from Amazon Video On Demand
12,000+ movies and TV episodes available with your Netflix subscription

I read further and saw that.

Looks like the same thing the Xbox does or can do now that it has netflix, if I understand correctly.

As connections get bigger it will happen, not sure what FiOS can push but at about 30GB per 2 hour BR disc you would need a pretty big pipe.

I found issues streaming BRD when I wanted to create a media server...then there is the audio and video being seperate problem.

I still think I can do this using standard DVDs.

Has Netflix added to their 360 library?

I was amped to try that out, until I saw they had a library of awful, straight-to-dvd movies.

That's why I cancelled my subscription.
