thats what I am currently doing. But if xbox really does make it as easy as it looks right now, then I will do that and start paying for the service. At least then the girlfriend will have someone else to bitch at(not me) when shit doesn’t work lol. ---

On your terms. With thousands of available channels to choose from. It is probably simpler than using the Xbox for it. :shrug: And FWIW, the streaming content on netflix is currently very limited when it comes to movies. Its mostly old movies and TV shows. ---

> What’s more, you won’t get a crack at every piece of entertainment in Netflix’s 100,000-piece library. Subscribers to this streaming/Xbox Live service may only choose from a smaller subset of 10,000 movies and TV shows. yeah, it looks like you wont be able to stream them all, but 10K is still a pretty decent amount of media [http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25680004/](http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/25680004/) ---

Don’t expect recent movies. I’m sure it will continue to improve, I’m just saying don’t sign up thinking gee, 10,00 movies, I’ll never watch em all. ---

I would like to get some xbox360 games plus still have the choice to stream from network fileserver. Right, different stokes for different folks. I don’t play SBL enough to justify $50/yr. I get it whenever I’m bored, I’m very fickle. I’d rather just pay for the Roku up front, even though I have a 360. However, they are hardly meant to compete. I was actually shoping for one before this news broke. the nice thing is that if/when Netflix goes to HD, both will likely still be compatible. ---
