Netflix comes to xbox360

The 10.3 million owners of Microsoft's Xbox 360 video game player will be able to use it to stream thousands of movies from Netflix, the video "rentailer," the two companies announced in Los Angeles on Monday. Beginning this fall, Netflix subscribers will be able to stream 10,000 movies and television shows onto their TV sets using the Xbox 360 device. Currently Netflix's online streaming service works only with PCs, unless subscribers buy a $100 converter box. The announcement came just one day after Microsoft announced that it was cutting the price of its 20Gb game player to $300.

Do you plan on using this? Or will you just download films to your pc and stream them? A video rental service is on the ps3 now (only in america unless you watch the video below) do you think these will be a success? I have always wanted to try buying a film on the 360 marketplace but just before I press ok I think "mmm do i really want to waste points on this?"

Tell me your thoughts and experiences with this in the comments.
