10-28-09 PS3 Netflix


On Monday October 26th Netflix has partnered up with Sony to allow users to use their PS3’s to stream movies to their TV. Netflix is the world’s largest online movie service and provides service for over 10 million members. Monday through Friday Netflix ships out a whopping 2.2 million DVD’s to all of their members. Netflix has been voted the #1 retail website for customer satisfaction since 2005. I recently saw that Netflix is now going to stream directly through a person’s TV from their PS3 system. It will cost $8.99 per month for a membership and you can watch an unlimited amount of movies. The way it will work to stream the movies is to slide a special disc into the PS3 to start the movie. Netflix will provide the disc free of charge as long as you are a member and you request a disc. Netflix is projecting that they will have a significant amount of the discs in November. I think this is an awesome idea and that there will be a lot of people that choose this option. It makes me wonder if there will be an increase in membership since it is now going to be allowed on a PS3.
