Netflix's New Service - I Love It!
 

Has anybody used the new "watch it now" feature on Netflix? I've already watched 2 movies on it with good quality, free (1 hour per $1.00 your account costs per month so I get 18 hours because I use the 3 at a time), and doesn't count as a rental off your queue. Not the greatest selection on the list right now but there are some gems up there.

Wait...so let's say I pay $10 a month for Netflix...I get 10 free movie hours to watch online...plus my regular movies in and out as quickly as I want 'em?

You get 10 free HOURS online... kind of crappy the way they do it but I just hit back twice after finishing the Hollywood Strangler meets....... and they didn't count it so I don't know how well they count right now.

is this 18 hours per month, or just 18 hours forever?

Per month, no rollover.

I think any movie-loving maniac would like that. Convenience is their middle name, I guess! I don't have Netflix myself but have been thinking about trying it.

Haven't tried that service yet, but I certainly will look in to it. I love Netflix thus far. Borat will be showing up tomorrow at noon. :)

I have Netflix, but I can't seem to find this "watch it now" option. How do you get to it?

It took me a while, but I just figured it out.

Go to 'My Account' and there will be some advertisement in the lower left hand side that says something like "Find out how you can watch movies now on your computer". Click that ad. When you click it, a new tab shows up on your page next to Recommendations, Queue, Movies for $5.99 that says 'Watch Now'.

I spent about ten minutes digging around on there until I finally noticed that ad so hopefully this will save some people some time.

Oh awesome, thanks. I would have never thought to look there.
