    Go there for latest adds to Netflix instant streaming catalog. You can also add them to your cue directly from there. Easier to sort and see HD etc.

    Are they saying that Xbox 360 will never be able to stream HD and surround sound from Netflix? Or, just PS3 got there first?

    I have both so I guess I don't really give a damn. :p

    That's because it's pre-loaded on the 360, because Microsoft owned the rights to this application. I'm sure all future version of PS3 and Wii will have it pre-installed, also...I'm just saying...Peace...

    The X-Box 360 has the best bang for the buck of all the major systems.

    I thought you were more interested in bang for your butt. ;) In which case I might go with the Wii. You can fit those controllers almost anywhere.

    The X-Box 360 has the most aesthetically pleasing design of all the major consoles -- you can't argue with that.

    I disagree- esp. with the huge power brick. Sleek black design ftw!

    From reading the playstation.com boards, it seems it disabled a lot of unlicensed 3rd party controllers and accessories.
