Its much harder for Netflix on Xbox 360.

Theres much more options than on PS3.


360 has

Netflix
Lovefilm
Xbox Video
Now TV
Sky
BlinkBox


And 2 more I cant remember.


On my PS3 I have a choice of 3.

Lovefilm
Netflix
PS Video Store ( Which lacks massively in comparison to Xbox Video )

So if I used my PS3 for any service it would be Netflix.

But the 360 has so much more content and options I use

Netflix, Xbox Video and Now TV combined on Live. The ultimate HD streaming service is what Live is.
Oh and just started using the new NBA app.

That is your excuse?? WOW you are something special. How about the fact that you don't need to buy xbox live and then buy a netflix subscription maybe? Or the fact that the Netflix app is better designed on the ps3? Use your head or cash that check from Microsoft. 

Its not an excuse. Its a fact.

Netflix does not have all the content I like to watch. Having Netflix on its own is a waste to me really. And as Ive tried Netflix on both I dont actually see a difference in the apps. 

If anything using Netflix on my 360 allows me to see what my Xbox Live friends are watching and recommending on Netflix something I dont get on my PS3 as noone I know is using a PS3. 

Also having Netflix, Now TV, Sky and Xbox Video all on Xbox 360 allows me to intergrate my experience wit the 360 Operating sytem. Via 360 dash I can serach for any TV show, Music or film or website and it will bring it up fro me. Selcting and strating the respective app without me having to do anything. Something I cant do on a PS3 with Netflix and wont be able to do ever unless Sony 1 changes their OS. And 2. gets many more services available as Netflix alone isnt gonna cut it.

One video service is enough for most people. 

For me at least I dont see how. Netflix has way to many films missing. To many. 

It doesnt have any films from the last 14 months. It is good for most TV series but something like Jericho randomly has only up to 6 episodes into Season 2. Been like that for the last year. Xbox Video has HD films for rent or purchase and sometimes before the Bluray is even out. Then theres Sky for Live TV, NBA for live sport and Now TV for HD rentals. 

Together they are perfect all through the 360 dashboard intergration.

LOL, first of all you're argument is extremely wrong in that you cant even get the services available on PS3 right. there is also huluPlus, Crackle, amazon, crunchyroll, neon alley, vudu and best buy cinema. Get your info right? Unless you are outside of the US then maybe its different. 

second of all, it doesnt really matter as Netflix is more popular and relevant than all those other you and I mentioned.

which brings me to number 3 as it really doesnt matter whether you think Netflix is good or not, you keep ignoring the fact you need LIVE to use ANY of those services which is what pushes the PS3 above it in terms of Netflix usage.


In the UK where I live PSN only has 6 apps in total. None of te ones you mention which are available on 360 in uk exist here for PS3. 

I tink its a very relevant fact that because Microsoft seem to look after outside US better than Sony = theres more people wit 360 with more choice. = Less have to opt for Netflix on 360 becasue of this. So it only means Netflix on PS3 does well due to the fact that in some countries like mine its the only decent option on PS3. Wereas 360 has alot more options for services in more countries. Meaning Netflix wont have an overall majority with 360 owners. I use it, but also use 3 others on 360. Because thats the most complete option.
