Netflix now launced in the UK, pretty cheap

[Neorion]

£6 for all the content they hold, not bad to be fair. Not sure what quality it comes through at but I believe its decent in the states.

Splendid, I must check my LoveFilm subscription tonight and see how much more they've suddenly started offering.

Skip a couple of hits on the bong and support content producers by actually paying for your stuff? It's a crazy idea, but it just! Might! Work!

I do if I like it and it's available easily. Given my taste in East Asian cinema it's a bit difficult to wander down to the local Super-Mega-Ultimate-ColourPalace to pay £8 for a ticket, £10 for something that might possibly qualify as "refreshments" if you squint and it's dark enough, then sit in a room full of mouth breathing troglodytes that seem incapable of keeping their opinions to themselves whilst an AV "technician" proceeds to press play to make the pretty lights appear (often badly out of focus) and crank the sound up to painful levels. Netflix - the original topic - is crippled in terms of content and personally I won't pay for that sort of limited range when it contains nothing of interest.

Given the sheer volume of regurgitated shite that is pushed out by the meedja, most particularly the old boys network we call Hollywood, then it's obvious why they are so desperate to maintain a stranglehold on consumers by making damn sure that the only thing available on our screens are their own brand of high budget low value dross.

Not that you care Mr.Borg, no doubt your existence is one of spotless austerity with nary a peep from an exemplary social conscience. You may rest assured that thieving scum like myself are causing the downfall of Western Culture

OK, subbed up. Quality is OK, but I'm watching over composite on a Wii so it'll never be that great anyway.

The library is pretty sparse, a few sub-blockbuster films from 2 or 3 years ago plus a fairly eclectic mix of older films and movies - kudos for A Boy and His Dog. Worth a free try, but they'll need to get a lot more content on there with weeks to retain their initial trial customers.

The forced Facebook integration can shag itself with a bad-AIDS infected cactus, needless to say.

Well, if you like, but what with DVRs making adverts trivially skippable as well, strap yourself in for a return to the likes of "Dr Pepper's 24" where Jack extols the virtues of taking a refreshing hit of ice cold fizzy caffeinated tooth-rot every 5 minutes.

Dr Spaceman approves of this message.

Quick BUYP for anyone trying it, to note that there's some stuff on it that doesn't appear to be isn't browsable via the menu categories on the Wii interface, at least as far as I can see.

It's searchable if you know what you're looking for, but you have to go to their intardtubes site and spot it there. And even at that, some of it is bizarrely mis-categorised. How is Firefly not "TV SciFi and Fantasy"?

Major usability and marketing issue, I'd have thought, having SUPAR SEKRIT content.

Lovefilm instant is 4.99 and has better content and the xbox/ps3 apps don't suck ring. Also my tv has the app direct.
