Someone has finally created a search engine for the instant viewing section:

You can search by director, actor and movie/show title. The titles are also listed in alphabetical order.

Thanks for this. I've been thinking if the move to Netflix from Blockbuster would be worth it. After seeing that list, the answer is no.

The only thing I would watch online would be TV shows and there are not enough TV shows available on there for me to watch to make the switch worthwhile.

Netflix has finally added a separate Instant Queue. It automatically imported all 45 of the instant titles from my main queue.

Nice. :up:

Box announced today in partnership with Roku.

I'll likely put another thread in DVD talk and/or home theater area.

No word on HD capability.

EDIT: Discussion on the box rather than the service side of "Watch Now":

i could be wrong but it seemed like in the Roku faq on this, they were implying that once Netflix adds HD content to the Watch It Now feature, the Roku box will be able to output that to HDTVs. no clue what level of HD that means, but i guess a firmware update would take care of it

it's true that the selection in W.I.N. isn't HUGE, but it's respectable.

i always seem to find stuff i want to watch

then again, i don't really go for new release big budget titles very often
