By instantly I was referring to the unified search. Pretty much anyone can have a Netflix app on their device. But for Netflix to give database access from outside the app requires them to make a separate deal. And they won't be keen, as they don't want their content to be seen combined (and on par) with their competitors. The same applies to every other streaming company.
Without unified search, the XB1 will do what the PS360 can already do, but with voice control.

Check out the video at 2:12... Unified search will exist in Windows 8.1

It looks like they are grabbing information from Wikipedia and YouTube. It's not the same as having access to the Netflix database.

Correct but this really wouldn't be the challenging aspect for something like this...
Windows 8 already has the ability to search Netflix outside of Netflix library. Swipe from right to bring charms, select search, type movie title, and tap netflix. You are not searching netflix through netflix but through Win 8 universal search.

That tap of Netflix is you opening the app and searching for what you typed. If you just search the title it doesn't have any results outside of the app.
