if you have a Netflix account and a PS3, you can finally stream instant play off your ps3. go to your netflix homepage and request the free PS3 disc and you are good to go.

I received my Netflix disk in the mail on friday. Threw it into my PS3, and was STOKED to go peruse the Instant Play offerings. Only bummer was that most of the instant play movies SUCK!!!! I have had that trouble for quite some time on Netflix.

We ended up watching a Zach Galifinakis comedy show. It was ok, quality was alright. But, it wasn't the same as throwing in the latest and greatest hollywood release. Heck I would have loved to throw on Gran Torino or another Eastwood film. But nope, no can do with Instant Play, crappy films only.

you know what else sucks I have 1.5mbs down speed, and for some ghey reason, Netflix decides to let you watch movie at the quality based on your speed and not of your choosing. So i can't watch HD movies ever. EVEN if I am willing to let it load for a while and then watch it, you know like youtube. ghey
