    talked to netfliks today and yes you need the disk for it to work. next year they say they wil may have an app u can download for it or firmware update that will have it but for now you need the disk. and what the big deal with haveing to put a disk in? its free and u keep it for ever. it has the software u need to run netfliks on the ps3. and thats why u need it couse it has the software.

    I’ve read that MS has a deal where they are the only one that can have Netflix on the XMB. This is a workaround as it used the BluRay Live feature to access the net. Read that November the 18th ends the 1 year exclusive contract that MS has with Netflix.

    Thanks, I didn't think that I had to spell that out.
    I would assume that after November 18th next year, we will be able to launch NetFlix from the XMB (Like the 360 does from the DASHBOARD) instead of using the Disk.
