I love the options Netflix gives. It's CNET that convinced me to get a subscription in the first place, and it's they're great site that's kept me. I wish though that they had more instantly watch movies, but why complain when you're in heaven?

Your poll sucks. No other choices? The Xbox is noisy, hot, and expensive. If they made a quiet one it might be worth it because it's a decent Media Center extender and playing HD Netflix would be fairly tempting. I frankly shouldn't have to buy any new hardware like a Roku or an Xbox or a media extender at all. My hdtv is hooked up to my computer, and I've got a big beautiful full 1080p computer monitor as well. They are on the right track with Watch Instantly, but it only works on Windows 32 bit, and no HD.

Now if they just made plugins that worked with any browser, with MS Media Center, and preferably with any Linux pvr program, problem solved. Time shifting, etc, movies and live tv all in one place. Hopefully their move to Silverlight will make this possible. I have machines with Ubuntu and Vista 64 but their watch instantly doesn't work on either one!

its nice to have the movies immediately on the TV or computer but it is just like a christmas gift everytime the mail comes. if you do not change your quene often then the movie you will be receiving will likely be a surprise. I used to nearly never get the mail and now i get it almost everyday (my mom used to get the mail) because i am excited to get the movie. so its nice to have the anticipation of if a movie came and what movie it is. It would be great if they could add games to their rentals and learning software and BOOKS. well ebooks since books probably do not fit in a mail slot or an envelope. or they could send it on something like a USB or memory card and then you can read it at home. That would be great.

Streaming? What percentage of Netflix's inventory is actually streaming. Right now, out of 83 movies in my queue only 4 are available streaming. I find this to be typical of my viewing preferences.
