Default Netflix on your PC

My wife and I have a Netflix subscription. It's one of those 9.99 a month jobbers or whatever. Anyhoo, now with any subscription you can watch movies immediately right on your PC. You get as many hours of watching as dollars you pay per month.

Why is this cool? Well for me, it is convenient because our Netfix queue is filled with movies my wife and I or just me wife want to see. With this new netflix feature I can watch all the cool guy stuff I want to see in the privacy of my "man room" without taking space up on our queue.

Yes...we have NetFlix as well. Unfortunately the watch now feature is not compatible with Firefox, so I have to switch over to IE for online movies...but it's an awesome deal

We'll have to switch Netflix emails so we can all be Netflix Friends... it's actually pretty cool to see how alike you are with folks in ratings and what you have watched. (I added some Geezer Gamers last year)

The email I use for Netflix is brassine at rocketmail dot com.

COOL! I added you to both my account and our joint account. (you can have a different queue/account for each disc you receive)

It's nice because I don't feel guilty for getting all my geeky movies when Rachel might want to see something instead.

Hey Doc,

I can see your (tiny) queue , but apparently you've never watched/rated any movies...sup with that?

Maze on the other hand is defiantly getting his moneys worth...watched over 800 movies

hehe Not all through Netflix mind you... just went through and rated a LOT of movies to make the "Movies you'll Love" section work better.

There is a Netflix hub in Raleigh, so I can usually get three movies a week. (two 1/2 days tops)

In my defense my queue was very cold.
