I just wanted to mention something that I think is a great value for those of you who own a Wii or a PlayStation 3 – you can now get a free Netflix streaming app from the app store on your console. If you have a Wii, just visit the Nintendo Store; if you have a PS3, it should have magically appeared in the Video section of your system menu.
Netflix streaming is pretty much replacing cable for us at this point. For $9 a month, you get access to a huge library of titles that you can watch at your convenience, plus you get new releases in the mail on DVD (or BluRay, if you have a PlayStation 3). The selection of movies and television shows on there, in conjunction with what you can watch in terms of new programs on the web, leaves us almost without any need for cable at this point.
