Netflix app now available for iPhone and iPod touch -- stream TV and film to your phone!

The Netflix app lets you stream TV shows and movies straight to your iOS device -- and according to MacRumors, the service works over Wi-Fi and 3G. You'll need a Netflix subscription ($8.99/month), and 3G data costs will be prohibitive to most... but the ability to stream TV and movies from your local Wi-Fi-enabled Starbucks is pretty damn cool.
Now we just need a similar service here in Europe... how about it, Lovefilm?

Ohmygoodnessgraciousness!!
This is the hottest thing in the entire universe.
I download the client, I enter my credentials, and within 5 seconds I'm watching Blade Runner without commercials or interruptions.
The world's productivity is going to take a massive hit.
Gotta go. Need to find out if androids dream of electric sheep.

totally cool watched part of my first movie, no problem with 3g, though sometimes I will also watch movies that ripped by iFunia DVD ripper from DVDs or somewhere, this movies enjoying experence really sucked me.
ok i still use another app to deal with my que
BUT why now, they had this for a long time (by rumor)
i think its strategic, that apple will be putting out a streaming system next week to compete
why do the movie companies let netflix do a supscription service and not apple, is it to build up a defense to counter apple
apple must be doing something BIG

It works great even from outside the US. You just need to set it up correctly. I have written a little guide on the subject here: http://thomasfals.com/how-to-use-netflix-on-the-iphone-from-outside-the-us/
