Netflix on PS3? - Blu-ray Forum

I enjoy it alot, especially for watching TV shows. I cut off my cable a few months after getting it. Its really worth the money. I do 1 dvd or blu out at a time for 13/month.

Excellent. Don't need a disc now. You can search all Netflix titles plus it shows content recommended for you based on what you like. You may want to create another account just to watch movies because now you will see the pop ups in the upper right hand corner during movies which you didn't with the disc and it can get distracting. You can, of course, turn off notifications too. And I don't know how they do it but the quality is excellent and there are no interruptions in the streaming. Compared to YouTube, its rocket science compared to the stone age. Lots of new movies and TV shows weekly, and an increasing amount of 720p HD offerings.

I LOVE IT!

The HD stuff looks really good and some of them even have 5.1 surround sound now and it sounds great. I'm not getting any interruptions, buffering, or dropouts. There seems to be a nice selection of movies and tv shows as well. I'm using a free trial month at the moment but if I keep enjoying it as much as I have thus far I will be signing up.

I was on the fence also and once I tried the free trail I never looked back. I've had it for 8 months now and absolutely love it.

I had it when it first came out, like 10 years ago. You used to be able to get 5 movies out at a time for very cheap. Then they raised the rate and lowered the number of movies so I dropped off for awhile. Can back and it seems to get better and better. Don't forget you will have access on your computer too including streaming of Starz.

How does netflix work? Does it download the movie to my PS3? I don't want to be downloading movies on my PS3. I keep it for just upgrades and add ons.

I do the 1 out at a time (DVD not Blu) and it's only like 8 or 9 bucks a month. Is it 4 or 5 bucks more for Blurays?
