Only noticed this yesterday.
Not many films on there at the moment.
Some are free
Some are part of your subscription
and some you have to pay for.

For example chopper is on there as part of the package.
and I watched Mega shark vs giant octopus last night for £3.49.

The qaulity isn't amazing, I would say marginally worse than dvd. But as there's a fair bit of free content this is an excellent service. Will be interesting to see what more they add over the coming weeks.

Anyway thought I let you guys know in case you hadn't seen it. As I think it is brilliant especially the free stuff as part of your subscription.

Been there for a few weeks at least.

Not watched anything yet though. When I first spotted it there was only 3 or 4 films on the list.

Got a fair bit on there now if you search through the rubbish.

Netflix has been doing such out here for about a year or so now I believe. Generally the films are crap, but they're slowly but surely managing to point out to the movie industry that there is a lot of money to be made with very little effort in the streaming movie business, and we're seeing more and more decent ones.
There is even this nifty "Roku" player, http://www.roku.com/ , which you can hook up to your TV for playing streaming movies from Netflix and Amazon's Video on Demand.
