Oh and just to double check what I thought I read, do you really have to be a gold subscriber to access Netflix? If that's true... man... what a hack -_-;;;

 

Why would you say that? It's not like you're paying for Live or Netflix twice, you're paying for two completely different services. You get all the benefits of Live and all the benefits of Netflixs and they just happen to work together as an added bonus.

Thinking paying for both is a ripoff is like saying it sucks you have to pay for your WoW subscription and your internet.

 

Well, yes and no because the situation doesn't apply the same with everyone.  If you already have a Gold account, great because it makes it that much easier to try out Netxflix via XBL.  But what if you only have a Silver account?  So for some of those with the Silver account will feel put off to pay for a Gold subscription AND THEN subscribe to Netflix.  Just like how some who do not care for MMORPG's because of the monthly fees such as I, having other preferable options for gaming.
