so I'm just gonna poost this here and hope I don't get modded for being off-topic(reason I mention that is cuz its so damn common on gamefaqs, and I'm not totally familiar with the ToU here yet)

1. Is there any difference in the amount of movies/tv shows you can get(streaming, cuz unless something is REALLY good and its just a must watch kinda thing, I'll probably never use the mail in service....I'd probably forget to return them XD) on the 3 plans?($8.99 for 1 DVD in, $13.99 for 2 DVDs in, $16.99 for 3 DVDs in)

2. Same question, but only this time, instead of for the plans, for the individual consoles???

Like if I have Netflix on 360 and 1 of my buds has Netflix on his PS3 and my dad has Netflix on his Wii, one of us won't be able to access more/different shows than the other 2 correct???

If so, how much of a difference(how many tv shows and movies, and which ones, if there is a difference at all)

Please help!!

Thanks in advance!! !

Here is fine. It don't matter much.

You can get more movies delivered, because not all are available for streaming.

All three are the same service. I, however, prefer the 360 version of it over the ps3.

Why is that??? Just personal preference??Or is there something more to the preference???

I'm just asking, cuz if all 3 offer the same thing I don't see why someone would prefer 1 over the other(unless it has to do with streaming problems or something)

Whenever I pause whatever I am watching on my ps3, it takes a bit to load back. It just annoys me.

I find the 360 version much more intuitive.

It doesn't matter what plan you get, you can unlimited streaming movies. Keep in mind though of your internet provider rules on how much bandwidth you can use every month.

Pausing and resuming Netflix movies or DVDs on my Wii is very smooth and takes no time to load at all (even though I use 2.4 GHz wireless, and not an Ethernet connection). The Wii is much better for Netflix and DVDs than the Xbox 360 or the PlayStation3.
