My comments

  • I stream Netflix movies each evening to my xbox360 and have seen periodic problems with the server streams and the problem is in the San Jose connection. I am in Northern VA and the stream falls to less that 500kb/s which causes the movie to degrade to a very low resolution. This is happening more frequently several times a week and I run a trace and it is always the San Jose connection so I do not agree that this is a reliable method to stream movies. This will become an increasing problem as the number of subscribers increases. When Amazon joins the streaming then this is really going to be an issue. Personally, I am praying this business model will succeed and am relatively pleased with the quality and price. The selection must be improved to become marketble for the masses. My wife and I enjoy artsy and foreign films so for us it is barely adequate. I am moving to Europe next year and will not have access to US films unless this type of streaming is available.
