Windows Phone 7 to feature Netflix streaming video service

March 15, 2010 | By Surur

One of the surprise 3rd party apps shown off at MIX10 was by Netflix, which unlike on other platforms, support the full experience, including Watch Instantly, which allows the streaming of full movies over 3G.

The availability of this app goes far in addressing scarcity of media on the platform, and will allow Microsoft to leverage a service that’s already in pretty wide use, which can only be good for the popularity of Microsoft’s new mobile OS.

this is simply awesome. but the innability to install apps without the marketplace is really making me disinterested

the netflix demo blew me away. that most likely be the first app I install from the marketplace.

I think Microsoft means well about not allowing the option to sideload apps…after all security wise its a benefit
maybe we're having problems because we're looking at it from the old windows mobile perspective where we'd need to install little utilities and the like to setup our phones the way we want, so sideloading was a must have…but now with the new OS…is it a must have? or is it just a "I want it just in case"?

personally I'd preffer sideloading to be in it rather than not. but now that I've seen the OS in action, I can't agree if it's needed or not.
