Great topic. I'm glad to hear Wii streaming will soon be available. About streaming: what kind of internet connections do you guys who use it have? I have the 1.5mb service from *** cable. Are there minimum bandwidth requirements or does it just downgrade the quality if it can't keep up. I've thought about ordering the Roku box or digging up and old compuer, but I've got a Wii so that would be awesome!

My inglorious bstards blu ray movie finally came on Monday. I requested it before the release date was ever set.... 
popular movie.
This is just a bump in the road with netflix. nothing serious. I will continue to use it.

I subscribe.
We use the Wife's Laptop PC for our youngest to watch movies via streaming. I have an old PC that I plan on hooking up to our LCD in the Bedroom so we can stream to it. I hate the thought of spending 100 bucks on the streaming unit when I can get it via an extra PC.

I'm not sure how the algorithm works for people that do this, but I can tell you we get a lot more standard dvd's than Blu Ray for new releases. There may have been many people that got on the list before you requesting the BR.

The PS3 stream is awesome, we have a 37" 720P in the bedroom and it comes through beautifully.
I can't wait to kick the Wii and 55" (8yrs old) to the kids play room so I can put a 1080P in the frontroom with the PS3. But that won't happen until I buy Mrs. Steelblitzkrieg a larger home. I wasn't supposed to get the PS3 until then, now I'm only allowed to sign the loan docs, I can't say anything during the home shopping...Totally worth it!

I think I can... I think...
I would consider it but the movie industry doesn't seem to make enough movies worth watching to get me to sign up.
Nor do I seem to have the time!!
The wife and I have tried to go to the movies several times in the last few months.....nothing worth watching since seeing "Inglorious Bastards"
I can't remember the last time that I rented a movie or did pay per view on my dish box.
