Yes there is.  Depending on the movie studio it can be as long as two weeks after release before it will be available on NetFlix.

Still, that's very reasonable.

Question is:  Is Netflix still adding movies to their arsenal?  Older movies say?

Yes and they also have agreements with certain pay channels (Starz) and studios to add more movies to their Instant Play as well as regular DVDs.

I personally like it.  I used it to watch every episode of Spartacus: Blood and Sand last year.  They would usually put it up the day after it appeared on tv.  I've watched a load of different series that I would probably never think of watching like Weeds that I really enjoy and tons of movies that I wouldn't think of picking up at Blockbuster.

If you can play Aces high your internet is good enough, they have thousands of movie to "watch instantly" you just pick a movie and hit play movie now.

Should take 10 seconds to buffer then your good to go.....I have seen a bunch of good movies I would have never given the time of day for in a movie store.


And as far as new releases to ship to your house they are quick to deliver and no wait time after release.

So dial-up is good enough?  Kewl.

Concerning the Samsung BDC6500 BluRay player, do you run a cable or is it WiFi?

I run it via wifi and its pretty good with the streaming capability. I could run it via cable but I decided against that since I am limited in the amount of ports on my router.
