Netflix for iPhone and iPod Touch

For those in the US with a Netflix account, fire up the App Store and download it now. :cool:

It currently isn't designed for the Retina display so it is scaled but the quality is watchable for the quick show or so on the go.

God I wish this would come out for the Droid...

I search on Netflix in the market place at least once a week, but so far no dice.

Netflix has been mentioning for a while now that they were developing for the iPhone and iPod Touch, I see a Droid version not to far out, hopefully within half a year.

They are absolutely everywhere now, Xbox, PS3, Wii, Blu-ray players, TVs, etc.

I have to say, between Netflix, Hulu, AudioGalaxy, AirVideo, Pandora and Sirius, I am very glad I have unlimited data.

That would be great. I have the streaming disc for my PS3, which is great for home viewing. Hopefully the Droid version will be here by the end of the year!

What I am really looking forward to is when they start to deliver 1080p streaming with 5.1 audio.

I haven't picked that App up for my touch yet because it seems a little pointless, but my brother has it for his iPad and uses it often.

If you have no use for it, sure. But then again most things are when you have no use for them. :p

I wish they would add the functionality to edit your DVD queue. Just being able to add / reorder movies from my iPhone is more important to me than trying to watch a movie on a 3 inch screen.

On my Droid I just go to their website for that functionality. You just looking for an app to make it a little easier, or does the iPhone have a problem with netflix.com?

No, it works just fine.

If you're going to have an app for your service, why not have it do as much as possible?

Viewing my Netflix queue, currently at 242 movies, on my iPhone is cumbersome at best. Reordering movies is not even close to worth the trouble. If they gave it some thought they could easily make it a much better process in the app (or alternatively a mobile-friendly site).
