Got my XBox 360 back last week. Took less than 1 month to get repaired, which is pretty cool.
But upon receiving it, I got a nice surprise: I had no idea you could do Netflix streaming through the XBox. Essentially, for 9 bucks a month, I get access to 12,000 flicks that can live stream to my XBox. Pretty cool, eh?
Small problems: They don't have new relases most of the time, but you can still get 1 movie at a time via mail. Also, your picture quality is dependent upon the speed of your connection, so if you're hoping to watch Batman Begins in beautiful HD or whatever, probably not gonna happen unless you have a crazy fast connection.
However, for my purposes, that's ok. Rachel and I watched Swingers (her first time) the other night, and Season 1 of 90210 over the weekend. Sweet.

I've heard that this works really well but I am not a Netflix subscriber so I haven't had a chance to try it out myself. Hopefully they will start doing a better job of supporting new releases soon.
