10 July 2009 3:11 by Andre "DVDBack23" Yoskowitz | 2 comments

According to Netflix's latest blog post, the company's 12,000-strong 'Watch Instantly' library is headed to Internet-connected Sony Bravia HDTVs.

Starting in a few months, users will be able to watch any movie or TV show in the library for free via the TVs, given you have a subscription with the rental company.

Says the post:
"Come fall, Netflix members on any unlimited plan will be able to instantly watch movies and TV episodes streamed from Netflix on Sony�s BRAVIA Internet Video-capable HDTVs and on previous BRAVIA models compatible with Sony�s BRAVIA Internet video link module. With BRAVIA, Sony joins a growing roster of world-class consumer electronics manufacturers providing Netflix ready devices -- Microsoft (Xbox360), LG Electronics, Roku, Samsung, TiVo, VIZIO."

But note that whle this news is about a Sony product (Bravia TVs) this does not include the PS3. Not yet at least. Interesting, particularly seeing as how Xbox (as well as a host of others like DVD/Blu-ray players) have this. [ + quote]
