A lot of people's computers probably cant handle playing High-definition movies.... and many peoples computers aren't set up to a 40" TV with a nice leather couch sitting in front of it.

The 360 can stream HD (if your bandwidth can handle it) with no problems, and play it at a decent framerate too... And you dont have to be sitting in a computer chair to do it

Where exactly does he get off with the notion that there is anything that "should" be free? You pay a fee to Microsoft to use their online system. Big deal. If you have a Netflix, you can now use it through their online system. I hope that some of the kids out their will come to discover that this is how business works.
