Netflix has got itself a pretty nice deal with Microsoft and with that the streaming video service will now be available at Windows Media Centre. This would bring over 12,000 of it Netflix’s TV episodes and movies to the Media Centre. However, the bad part of the deal is that it would only be available to the users of Windows Vista Home Premium or Ultimate, meaning XP users will have no access to the service. It’s pretty obvious that Microsoft is definitely bent upon adding more content to its Media Centre to engage more users. Not bad, I guess this is something Microsoft should have begun doing a long time back plus there is one more thing it needs to do, try and offer its XP users more, instead of making many of its service a no-enter zone for anything less than Vista.
