Nice!

 

[Buzz Killington]

didn't even know, I just hooked it up to the interweb and there was a netflix icon on it.

my sister works there so she hooked up my xbox with instant...its good for free, i dont think i would pay for netflix tho

 

[Wheels]

I love it. I have it on my xbox for instant.. and 2 discs at a time (1 for me and one for the wife) especially if you use DVD shrink

 

[Buzz Killington]

I'm getting a blue ray soon, probably a PS3....just thought it would be easier to rent movies than have to buy and store them around.

 

[Buzz Killington]

I'm on the 3-at a time plan but might downgrade to 2.

 

[ehizzy3]

plus blue rays are expensive as fuck for a movie you watch a handful of times

 

[Wheels]

I'm telling you guys.. use DVD shrink (not for Blu-Ray though.. F Blue Ray)

 

[Buzz Killington]

what's DVD shrink?

I dunno, just got HDTV so I want to see it in all its glory!

 

[Buzz Killington]

I signed up for BOXEE yesterday too. we'll see how that is, its kind of like hulu

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Can I download Netflix to my computer?

DVD Shrink is a program that records the DVD onto your harddrive and then records the DVD onto a Blank DVD.. I swear a few years ago when I worked nights, I would get my netflix at like 11:00 am in the mail, I would record them and send them off in the mail at 5:00 that SAME evening.. it got to the point where Netflix would purposely slow down my queue cause I was sending stuff back too fast

 

[Buzz Killington]

oh. meh, i wouldn't bother doing that.

 

[Wheels]

oh. meh, i wouldn't bother doing that.

lol ok then. But its worth it when you have like a new dvd collection of 200 more in a couple months lol.

 

[Buzz Killington]

yeah. I suppose, but if I have netflix, why bother.

 

[Buzz Killington]

Digital rips would be better but they're always in retarded formats that Video_TS and Audio_TS...would be better to put on an ipod...they have software but again, too lazy to do it.

 

[Blazer Freak]

Anyone recommend it for their XBOX 360? I've been thinking about doing it cuz I need some movies to watch down here in Eugene...

 

[Wheels]

yeah. I suppose, but if I have netflix, why bother.

yeah I suppose there are a BUNCH I havent watched.. but still to have such a huge collection lol.

meh....i would do the free trial, and see if you like it...because the selection for movies on instant isnt the greatest

Yeah we have all the South Park ones on there.. I thought it had - season 10 on it though, I could be wrong. Heroes is on there as well for those who like that (havent seen it) but yeah if you are looking for movies.. Father of the bride is on there at least lol. But it does have Big Lebowski.

This is what I enjoy about netflixs. I'll pick a series (like 24) and go through a whole season in 1-3 days. Don't have to wait each week to see what happens next. Never got into lost but same idea . . . fly through a season in a few nights.

There are some cool series or mini-series you can find surfing their site.
