  • It would be even better if some type of feature is included (whether hardware or software based) that lets you stream the Netflix content to those other people over the web - Sling Media Player style. That way you could watch your Netflix with others who don’t necessarily have an xBox. This would of course be counter-productive since this move is of course to increase sales - but they could allow some type of “limited features” thing with the streaming option…
  • Wow. That would be cool... I might even be willing to pay an incremental fee for that option (i.e., for a dollar or something per simultaneous viewing away from your system).
  • Ultimately, ALL media (movies, music, games, books, etc.) will be available through online media stores/websites. The associated industries need to push toward open standards, so that this media will work on any software platform (Windows, Linux, OS X, etc.) and any hardware platform (PC, game console, set-top box, TV, smartphone, etc.)...albeit with different performance characteristics. This would greatly simplify the production, distribution and usage of the media.
