Xbox 360 Netflix client reaches 1 million customers

Exactly. How many of those one million people uninstalled it? I did and switched to Blockbuster. Netflix is cool over xbox live but video quality is not great and the titles available are pretty limited. Since they are so slow with new releases through the mail I had to swith. I can get 5 free from Blockbuster every month so I get new releases right away.

That is exactly why I also stopped using it, I do have a fast connection so the quality is top notch and you can't expect some older movies and tv shows to be uber quality anyway. The aspect ratios wont always match and it looks better on my 32" than on the 42" but you guys are exactly right, Netflix needs to add their entire library to streaming or at least every single new release. I will pick it back up in a couple months when the releases pick back up a little. Cant fault the GUI or that this is even offered, I think it is a win either way and giving customers the choice to get more from their electronics for 8.99 a month in my eyes is a good thing.
