Netflix to Download to TVs #
January 3rd, 2008 | In Worth Knowing
Through a partnership with LG, movies should be streaming straight to subscribers TVs’ sometime this year. Of course they’ll have to buy a device with the capability, which means this isn’t quite so nice as it first sounds. From Engadget:
Slated to launch sometime in Q2, the networked player would purportedly allow owners to stream in movies for viewing on their television, and it’s being reported that the feature would be “included in all of its various price plans… at no extra charge.” Pricing deets on the LG device have yet to be disclosed, but we’re told that the firm could “embed the receiver into its $799 dual-DVD player [likely the BH200].”
