I-Weapon-X: Hexpane: I have PS3 and Netflix so I had to reserve the disc... But why can't this just be FW update? agreed the only possible explanation is that MS has something to do with the actual software utilized on the 360 which is requiring a disc release for ps3?

Came across this question on Joystiq earlier:
Why a disc-based application and not streaming access through the PS3 browser? Netflix members and PS3 owners have really wanted a way to instantly watch movies and TV episodes streamed from Netflix via the PS3 system. The instant streaming disc represented the fastest and easiest way to let them do this. Why not distribute the application via PSN download or firmware update, and then embed it into the XMB? Again, the instant streaming disc represented the fastest and easiest way to let PS3 enthusiasts get Netflix on the PS3. Late next year we expect to have an embedded solution available for PS3s via a system software update slated for release through the PlayStation Network.

I guess that's what you get for paying for Xbox Live, at least until late 2010 when the PS3 does the same thing. Still for free.
Late next year sounds like BS. Remember PS Home was supposed to be out in 2007...

Don't forget party chat, Netflix watching with a party, and cross game invites.
I can't believe you could say that with a straight face (given the smiley).
Facebook? Twitter?
Last.fm can stay.

"Chillin' on the couch d00ds! Drop a line!"
"Currently updating my wall"
"Bed time for me...but...just need to finish one more job in Mafia Wars!"

I havent touched facebook in months.... blogging is dead to me.. I was blogging back before facebook, back when it was "web logging" ... burnt out way back
NPR ran an article about data miners salivating over the idea of facebook. REAL NAMES + REAL PERSONAL info = BIG $$$$$$$$$$$$ for various marketers.

So I'm not the only guy on the planet that doesn't have a facebook, myspace, twitter, or any of that crap account?
Besides, even if you're into that stuff, why do you want to do it on a game console? Does it really enhance the facebook experience to be doing it on your plasma TV with annoying options for a keyboard? I'm not looking for my console to replace my PC, just stream video.
