Netflix Watch Now Supports Mac

November 1st, 2008 Leave a comment Go to comments

I really like Netflix. I especially like how they are updating so many things to include their Watch Now function so you can stream much of their content via the internet. Tivo will soon have Netflix streaming built in and XBox 360 owners will have full HD streaming of Netflix content with their Fall update. One thing that has been missing though is Watch Now streaming on Macs. Well… that’s now fixed.

The Netflix Blog details how you can opt in to the beta to start watching streaming Netflix content on your Mac and PC using Silverlight (a browser plugin similar to Flash). Once you have joined the beta (just click the link) and installed Silverlight you can begin watching streaming video from your PC or Mac via Internet Explorer, Safari, or Firefox.
