Netflix to Stream Movies via Xbox LIVE?

Netflix to Stream Movies via Xbox LIVE?

None

According to Reuters, the online movie rental phenomenon, Netflix Inc., has conducted a survey of its subscribers in order to find out what their interest level was in streaming movies the Xbox 360.

The Reuters article states that “Netflix spokesman Steve Swasey declined to say whether the survey indicated a soon-to-be announced partnership between the two companies, but said Netflix was interested in getting its movies to consumers’ TVs “in as many ways as possible.”

Microsoft has not confirmed any of this yet. However, if you pair this news with the announcement made at CES 08 that Netflix will partner with LG Electronics to produce a DVR that will stream HD movies, it begins to make a lot of sense. There are no concrete details yet as to the validity of the story, but we will bring you confirmation or clarification as soon as it becomes available.
