Netflix And Sony Just Gave Us Coasters

We can all rejoice! The Netflix app is coming to the PS3 on the 18th of October. That's only a few days from now so use those soon to be obsolete PS3 discs until they no longer spin. Or at least find some new use for them. Maybe some form of artwork like some have done with the AOL disc of the old internet days.

But the new app does not just bring the ability to instantly stream movies and TV without a disc. What else are we are getting? How about finally being able to stream some of those HD shows actually in 1080p? Well we are getting that in the app. How about hearing it all in Dolby 5.1 surround sound? That is going in as well. Also a nice little update to the UI that is PS3 controller friendly.

Not a bad spread of new features that we have all been waiting for since the first discs were sent out earlier this year. I for one will be happy that I no longer have to get up and place the disc into my system anymore. YAY LAZINESS! Only a few more days of having to get out of my gaming chair.
