The CEO of Netflix is on MS board of directors.

Which if true wouldn't mean anything, since by law he couldn't be involved in any decisions between the two companies. (to my knowledge anyway.)

 

As a CEO of one company and director on another. I don't think he would be involved in any transactions but he could broker relationships by telling a member of one MS department to call someone in this department at Netflix.

Maybe, they were in negotiation with Sony for this as well however. I'd guess the difference was that Sony wanted money from netflix for each person who uses the feature and Microsoft didn't seeing it as enough that people will keep up their gold memeberships.

As stated above Sony probably didn't want to hurt their blu-ray and download service money though.

It makes logical sense why 360 has it and PS3 doesn't but people just want to run around shouting "OMG MS is buying everything that's why I can't enjoy anything!"
