Re: Seek Alternatives

said by cableties:

I spoke to Netflix support (you can't email them) about an issue and the discussion then moved to the new streaming. Netflix "prefers" you stream movies. More and more titles are becoming available. And more DVD/Roku players have Netflix access.
Yea they seem to be getting more obscure and ancient movies that you can stream. When they start streaming more content that is recent releases then it will be more of an option. Right now it just fills gaps and helps with the kids stuff.

Don't expect newer stuff on Netflix streaming anytime soon.

Sometimes it comes out the same day as the disk.

BUT the quality of streaming is no where as good as bluray, never will be.

Hate to break it to to but you are talking about digital RENTAL like Amazon and Itunes where you are paying PER MOVIE. Netflix streaming is mostly movies 10 years old or older. Good luck finding ANYTHING less than 5 years old. The studios would never let any newer movies be part of an all-you-can-eat package.

I stream to my LG Blu-Ray player and watches both TV Series and Movies released in the last two years.

Also currently only Time Warner has the 28 day wait on new releases of Netflix and Red Box.

Netflix has new movies, where have you been? They basically have most of the same on demand content that premium subscriptions to FIOS have.
