More predictions turn true today as Microsoft announced they are <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2008/07/14/netflix-coming-to-xbox-360-with-live-content-sharing/">teaming up with Netflix</a> to bring streaming movies to your TV through the Xbox 360.</p>
<p>TechCrunch reports:
</p>

<blockquote>Netflix is coming to the Xbox 360 this fall. Netflix subscribers will have instant access to over 10,000 movies and TV shows, streamed directly to the Xbox 360 console.</blockquote>
<p>This is great news for Netflix subscribers. Currently, the only "easy" way to get Netflix to your TV is to buy their <a href="http://gizmodo.com/389698/first-netflix-streaming-box-review-100-and-unlimited-downloads">streaming box</a> that was released a couple months ago. The box alone costs $100. Other than that you were forced to stream their movies on your <em>PC</em>. Mac or Linux support has yet to be released.</p>

    Plus, with the new party feature that will be presented with the 360 system update, you can share you Netflix films with your party members!
