Uh, holy crap? As predicted, Netflix streaming will be available “later this year” on the PS3. Like the Xbox 360, it’ll be free with the $US8.99-a-month plan—and that’s about all there is on the details front. (AU: US only though…) [Netflix, Sony]
I’ve played A LOT of sim city, and if there is one thing its taught me, its that ongoing costs are if anything more important than initial outlays (and that volcanoes erupting in the middle of cities is AWESOME!).
What I’m trying to say is: that ain’t free! and I would rather pay $3 to $5 per stream than a monthly fee.
hope they copy the xbox streaming rentals thing in AU for the PS3

I’m guessing it’s IP-based.
