Default Netflix and the Xbox

Has anyone teamed these two up yet, if so how do you like it?

The Xbox and Netflix deal

I am thinking about junking my premium movie channels on DISH and just rent movies from Netflix, assuming the Xbox is not in use.

I went to a friends house who had it, and i recommend it to anyone without any doubt. He had nothing but great things to say about it. Unfortunately my xbox doesn't have the compatible system(i bought a really early batch that does not support it) but i plan on selling it to buy a newer one with it.

All kidding aside, what plan did you go with? I am thinking the $8/month deal.

I heard about it on the radio for the first time today. For $99 (assuming you get access to all/most of the Blockbuster catalog) it's a pretty sweet deal.

I wonder which one will have the best PQ?

Netflix for $8/month affords one DVD at a time with unlimited online viewing, one user at a time or $16/mo for three DVD's at a time and unlimited online viewing three users at a time (Xbox at school, Mom at home and me on the road)

Blockbuster is $99 to get the free player and free 25 rentals then $1.99 per rental. the player is a single purpose unit.

Someone else get the scalpel out, my hands are shaking too much to make the cut.

Doing this with the Roku Netflix box (and soon my Series 3 HD TiVo). Dumped cable back in March. Get locals with an antenna. It's great, and we're saving a ton of money each month, and the aggravation of dealing with the cable company idiots.

It is worth noting that Netflix has HD content and at this time it's exclusive to Xbox 360.
