Poll: How important is surround sound to you? {Engadget HD}
Nov 15th 2009 4:39PM Its very important to me but (and I still dont know why I let this pass) but I watch netflix all the time and its only stereo (I do more netflix hd viewing that dvd/bd). You would think that I would be unable to stand the stereo audio but it doesn't bother me on netflix. I do still want them to do 5.1 asap but I don't avoid netflix streaming because of it.
YouTube going 1080p, already? {Engadget HD}
Nov 13th 2009 4:42PM Flash has something similar to the stuff silverlight can do but it does seem for some reason flash developers are not taking advantage. Ive said it before but the smoothstreaming tech in silverlight is awesome. All video online should use something similar.
YouTube begins streaming 1080p insecurities next week (update: 1080p video!) {Engadget HD}
Nov 13th 2009 4:38PM I was hoping they would atleast look at silverlight 3 for their new stuff..... hopefully flash gets something similar to what smoothstreaming does (I believe they have something similar in flash but its not out in the wild yet). After playing around some with the smoothstreaming tech on the 360 I want all internet video delivered like that.
Nokia rumored to be eyeing Palm buy yet again {Engadget}
Nov 13th 2009 4:36PM Why invest millions if not billions to fix their junk when they can just acquire an OS that is on par with anything else out there. Plus palm has always wanted an avenue into the US market which palm would provide.
Netflix hints at Watch Instantly integration on 'already-popular device' {Engadget HD}
Oct 25th 2009 1:44AM seems everybody is thinking pc but Im with you.... I dont see the ps3 having the "install base" (esp in the states) that netflix would be alluding to. Directv seems like a more logical choice to me. But I don't know if it has the right kind of codec support (since netflix runs under silverlight)
Rumor: Eight minutes of footage of the Xbox's Sky Player {Joystiq}
Oct 23rd 2009 3:47PM That looks awesome.... hopefully we see MS partner with one of the content providers here in the states to bring us that stuff.

Starz launching 5 new HD channels next year {Engadget HD}
Oct 21st 2009 11:12AM agreed.... all I want from starz is to give netflix hd sources.
Halo Waypoint detailed, captured on video {Joystiq}
Oct 19th 2009 2:18PM This is much different than I thought it was going to be.... I was more expecting something that looked like nxe and fit in with that system so it was "always" online. this looks alot like a whole game that has to be launched everytime you want to access it.
Xbox 360 update to add Music Games Store, news section {Joystiq}
Oct 19th 2009 11:55AM I actually am beginning to prefer the xbl apps way to have internet on the TV than a real web browser.... Its the same thing as the mobile apps work better than browsing the web on your phone. You dont get access to as many sites but what you do get works far better than the web version.
