Not great sets for movies. I’d rather just buy a Panny or Pioneer (if you can find one) plasma, get an XBox360, and just stream Netflix through that setup. Much better.

how long will it be before the studios make a top tier entirely digital movie and release the first run online? with so many people investing 1000s if not 10k+ in their home theaters, you would think there would be ample support for bypassing the cineplex. i know nothing of the movie business, but i thought they blew railcars of cash on distribution and marketing of their releases. one would think cutting out the theaters and marketing directly to highly profiled consumers via internet/set-top box or streaming tv would greatly improve the studio’s bottom line. one would think…. but then, i thought blockbuster would be dead and gone 10 years ago. what is taking the future so damn long to get here!?

Netflix streaming is simply AWESOME! The quality is unbelievable, however the movie choices are still slim.

Netflix streaming works great, just installed it for Media Center. Nice to see that TVs are now supporting it natively. At long last, goodbye broadcast TV!
