Netflix in HD - Blu-ray Forum

timmydformvp · 12-28-2008, 12:37 PM

Has anyone heard if you are able to download HD or Blu-Ray movies from Netflix yet? I have read some places where it will be available in the future, but I wanted to see if anyone had any experience diong this. I am about to buy a new player and this may affect which I buy. THanks in advance for your input.

I've streamed several of their titles but I wasn't aware any were available in HD. I'd love to know a title or two should I can try it out.

You wont be able to stream Blu-ray quality. Your internet would have to hit the peak of its download speed and you will need to make sure you wouldbt be capped. Currently there is no way of downloading/streaming Blu-ray quality legally or illegaly.
