Netflix Instant Streaming for PS3 Has Arrived

Just got the disc tonight, haven’t actually tried it out yet. It’s kind if lame that you have to insert the disc every time you want to stream something – as I understand it, it’s because they’re doing the streaming as a BD Live feature, which requires a Blu-Ray disc.

The studios have put the screws to Redbox and Netflix ( NSDQ: NFLX ) in order to get them to take new releases at a later date. Redbox has sued all the big studios —but Netflix is taking a different tack.
