Either way it's better than standard tv and better than the normal Hulu stream. Everything I've tried with PlayOn has worked perfectly other than I don't have a Netflix account to test that.<BR/><BR/>But Sony's monopolistic and non-standard approach to everything is why I doubt I will ever own a Sony product again, including the POS3.

And to lock off a revenue stream due to being petty...always seems silly to me.<BR/><BR/>Gotta love business practices.<BR/><BR/>As to PlayOn...I have tried it twice with ZERO success. Not sure why.<BR/>Youtube works, but nothing else has (Hulu for example has been noted on their forums as being cut off....twice)<BR/>But, it is a cool option, and hopefully it will improve, as I would pay for that.<BR/><BR/>Cheers.<BR/>(PS: Tesh...cool game in the Keflings...cheers)Elementalistlyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17536627257855895757noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647535028551977680.post-82116719821157482752008-11-21T14:16:00.000-05:002008-11-21T14:16:00.000-05:00It's a business move.

Sony has a player in the game in the PS3, and supporting a competitor would be less effective.Teshhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11760350503235227686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647535028551977680.post-10205420495902529242008-11-21T13:07:00.000-05:002008-11-21T13:07:00.000-05:00I don't have a Netflix account but I've been using...I don't have a Netflix account but I've been using PlayOn to stream Hulu to the 360. It also does Netflix but I can't test that. Since your PC is technically handling the streaming, Sony's block shouldn't come into play unless they're blocking their movies from being streamed PERIOD not just to the 360?Talynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17848472705380445923noreply@blogger.com
