Netflix Headed For Boxee

Posted on Dec 4, 08 08:42 AM PDT

For the uninitiated, Boxee is a software that enables access to online video from Hulu and CNN among others via your desktop/laptop, and it now supports Netflix access as well. This means you will be able to check out your Instant Queue and Recommendations, browse Recently Added and Most Popular, and go through the whole Netflix Watch Instantly selection by Genre and Search from the comfort of your living room (or lap, depending on which machine you're using). There's one drawback though, it won't work on Apple TV due to its lack of processing power, so you can be sure that you are in possession of a pretty souped up rig before taking full advantage of Netflix on Boxee. This latest version will also include :-

• New Hulu
• New YouTube
• New CNN, Flickr, Picasa and Apple Movie Trailers
• Boston Globe’s The Big Picture
• theWB for more TV content
• Support for skip forward, rewind
• Faster loading of the movies/music screen
