Looks like we’ll be able to watch unlimited amounts of streaming movies from Netflix now…

It’s unfortunate that I am still unable to watch the instant movies from my Ubuntu Linux Laptop and through my Dual 2ghz G5 Powermac. I HAVE to watch the movies on silly Windows XP (which I might add still takes forever to startup despite me virtually  clearning off everything I have on that damn OS except for Photoshop and a simple virus scan.)

It’s also unfortunate that the selection of movies still sucks for the most part. It looks like Heroes Season 1 is on there, but other than that it’s pretty slim picking in terms of quality. Unless you like all that straight to DVD bullshit that comes out nowadays.
