Sorry if this has been discussed already. I did a search and couldn't find a thread about it.
So...
Anyone use Netflix? I just bought a ps3 and saw it in my videos section.
Says I get a month free and then it's $8 a month after that.
I don't quite understand how it works or how well it will stream through the ps3.
Thoughts? |

Mid to Low definition , specially if the movie is old you will notice it.
Feels like you are watching a movie on youtube for some reason. |

Works awesome through my PC. Use it all the time.
Though I also get one DVD a month, I'm not sure where the DVD is and have probably had it two years or something like that o.o |

I have been using it for a while. Works great. Pay $8. Thousands of streaming movies and tv shows. The quality depends on the speed of your connection so if you have a slow connection the quality will be like Youtube 260p or 360p. The selection is excellent so you wouldn't be paying to watch nothing but old crap. |

| Do you think the wireless on the ps3 is good enough to stream? Or should I hook up the ps3 with an ethernet cable? |

| It's not 1 DVD per month, it's unlimited DVDs per month, but you can only have 1 at a time. So if you watch it and send it back the day after you could have like 10-15 per month. Blu rays are also only like $2 more per month. If you actually use it it's definitely worth the money, and far cheaper than renting the equivalent amount of movies per month. |

Hard wire is always better but wifi should work too. It'll depend on how far you are front the router and everything though. |

Ok so you can have them physically send you a DVD/Blu-ray or you can simply stream?
Sounds cool.:crazy: |

| Honestly I wouldn't really bother. We got it a couple of weeks ago and the selection for Canada is very poor; I don't think we have access to nearly as much a U.S. customers. Everything is at least 1-2 years old as well. |

You can do either one or both. I think streaming only is like $8 per month and to have them physically send you 1 DVD/Blu-ray at a time is $10 per month. |

I guess I'll give the free trial a shot and see out of date is before I waste any money.
Thanks for answering my questions broskis! |
