Vista Media Center gets Netflix Plugin with view now support


I just saw this and have tried it out. It works. The only thing that sucks so far is that it doesn't work for the Xbox 360 Media Extender. But since this is only the beta, that may be working soon.

This incredible MCML plug-in has a host of features including “Watch Now” streaming ability! That’s right, no more waiting for Netflix to get their head in the game. Other features include…

View Netflix queue
Browse movies
View your history/recommendations
Add/remove/move movies to your queue
Browse “Watch now” movies
Play “Watch now” movies

Grab the free beta download here.
Update: Well, its looking like Netflix is looking into adding the Xbox 360 and the PS3 as options for their streaming service. Check out the article at Electronista here.
