I had Netflix 4 or 5 years ago and things have improved since then. The player in the browser on my PC seems to be a lot more professional and user-friendly than it used to be. I also have a different setup than I had back then, so I'm not just limited to using a PC.
I wirelessly connected my Blu-ray player to the Internet tonight with the little USB thingy that came with it and now I'm watching Season 3 of Fringe on my HDTV. Looks pretty darn good. I can pause, fast-forward, and rewind with the Blu-ray remote control. I like it better than watching with a PC or using an Xbox 360 controller. Speaking of the Xbox 360, since I can use Netflix with my Blu-ray player, I can watch/listen to/glance at a show and play a game at the same time since my Xbox 360 is hooked up to a different HDTV. I can also do the same while I work on my web site or browse the Internet.
I like this new setup. Netflix streaming content is finally worth 8 bucks a month to me, even if I end up mostly watching TV shows.
