I got this email today:

As part of your current Netflix subscription, you have the option to watch some movies and TV episodes from the Netflix library instantly on your PC at no additional charge. Now, we've made it unlimited!

So watch instantly on your PC when you want, and as often as you want. Select from our separate, smaller library of over 6,000 familiar movies and TV episodes available to watch instantly.

- Your friends at Netflix

I think this offer isn't available for the $4.99 plan. But every other plan is covered. There are a lot of cool movies/shows on Netflix online library. They have The Office, Heroes, Dead Like Me, classic BSG, Quantum Leap, etc.

Super, extra exciting! This means non-stop TV show marathons.

Still no luck for Mac users though, I bet.

Not to hijack this thread, but for those of you who are Netflix subscribers, are you happy with your service?

Oh that's awesome, I'm on the one dvd at a time plan and they used to give me 9 hours of viewing or something. The quality is actually quite good. I watched the spelling bee documentary Spellbound, and several seasons of The Office on there.

I used to subscribe and at first, I really liked it. But then, the turnaround started being 4 then 5 days for a new DVD... it wasn't worth it for me.

I'm happy with it. It's not perfect, but it works more often than not.

We replaced broadcast television for Netflix, so we have the 5-at-a-time plan. Still cheaper than cable.

I am very pleased with Netflix, my turnaround time is 2 days on average....and it has been so worth the money for me as I am watching a lot more movies now!

I'm very, very happy. Their customer service is really spectacular as well. There was once a problem with my movie getting shipped out of order, so I called them. As soon as I explained the situation, they put a temporary extra disc on my account and sent the right disc immediately.

Yeah so far the service is pretty great. I have had it for 3 months and it sure beats paying for premium cable or blockbusters.

I'm pretty happy with Netflix overall. They have a large selection of foreign and independent films that you usually don't find on cable or Blockbusters.
