Anyone know if we'll be getting that ability? I know the iphone had it, makes me jealous haha.

Netflix did have a job posting earlier in the year suggesting that they were looking for an Android developer.
http://pocketnow.com/tech-news/netflix-targeting-streaming-for-android-with-latest-job-posting

Rumor has it Netflix will have a streaming Android player soon, hopefully very soon.
For now we'll wait. I wish they just used flash instead of the special plugin they require. If you change ur UA String to desktop and try to stream a movie, it asked you to install their silverlight plugin.
Hey... I think this thing makes phone calls too!

haha wow really. Now i just need an app that sends a message to a satellite and then it sends a laser beam to scratch my ass... (got it from a movie)

Google TV is going to support netflix is it not? and that is just android

I believe the Netflix support is because of GTV has Chrome built-in and has the tools necessary to play it. There's an Android app in dev that targets mobile phones and tablets.

its coming give it a few...im sure it will have a better ui than the one on the iphone.

Soooo amped for this. The "workday" will be so much more fun now...lol

Question about streaming. Does 4G affect streaming audio/video or does it just affect downloading/uploading a file(s)?

Figured this would be a good place to post this, but is there a good Netflix app to just manage my movies and such?

Have you tried PhoneFlicks or QueueMan? I use PhoneFlicks and it works well, I've never used QueueMan but have heard it works well too.

It'ss pulled from appbrain sometime since yesterday. I personally was hoping for a review before I spend $9 on it.

I'm calling BS on that app. For instance, Why does he have it priced at 4.99 and 8.99

blockbuster or netflix

I've been searching the forums can't find. Anything. On. Blockbuster or. Netflix app is there anything on that
I think it was either the galaxy or droid x thats getting a blockbuster app. I believe i even heard something about streaming. Does anyone know if its exclusive to that particular phone or if they are eventually going to release it for all android phones?
i would love a way to stream netflix too.
Netflix is working on an android app. That is all I can say about it.
We will get Netflix... if not I will cancel my membership.

notice the bottom it says the epic will have a movie service and the evo will not...
I emailed Blockbuster to ask when they will release an android application since we know it exists on the droid x and they refused to give me an answer as to if or when.

Everyone needs to harass these companies till we get the applications, especially Blockbuster because it already exists (I don't know anything about netflix). I imagine the Droid X has an exclusivity contract but it can't last for too terribly long.
Blockbuster is on the market,,, just search for it.

Blockbuster was pulled from the market cause it wasn't formatted for all the phones or carriers yet. Kept fc'ing and not downloading. My guess is whenever netflix comedy out, it'll be awesome.

Thank you.
or full tv episodes. its 3.99 and requires 2.2. also theres jetflicks but its 49.99 a year
Personally, I'm looking mostly for FREE stuff, altough I'm sure the recommendations for fee based stuff may help someone else reading this thread .
I'm running Andriod 2.2 off my HD2. Being used to WM, there were apps like WebTV and Online TVx, that had lots of free channels and even SPB TV is free on WM. So I'm just looking for similar on Android. But I'm not paying SPB for TV on Andriod when I can use their app free in WM.

Given hulu continues to block mobile devices, it's only a matter of time before an app like this will stop working due to being blocked.
SPB TV is now free
I guess the folks who make SPB TV got the message that most of us would never be willing to pay for their app .
SPB TV is now free.

Anyone know an app thats like Zumocast???

My dads Ipad has an app called Zumocast.. Which is like a media center..
He streams all his videos/movies/music from his home computer to his ipad on any internet connection, doesnt have to be within his network..
Its pretty bad ass actually.
I told him there is no way an ipad/iphone would have something that an android doesn't..
But there is no zumocast for android.. There has to be something like it right???
and Zumocast is free too!
I am definitely interested in this....I have been searching...only thing I found so far is torrent-fu, also free

yep use audiogalaxy here and it works great for music but at the moment the only way I know of streaming videos is through setting up a server using vlc and using VLC Stream & Convert to watch it.
http://www.appbrain.com/app/vlc-stream-convert/com.gmail.traveldevel.android.vlc.app
I have used zumodrive and dropbox to do both these actually, but on both my old etch e sketch..i mean iphone and EVO I have used OrbLive and it rocks.
With OrbLive I can stream tv from home to my phone..whereas dropbox and zumodrive I can't.
I have ripped backups of some of my DVDs and also watched them on phone..again with Orb Live this rocks cause you provide the storage space on pc or phone and with zumo and dropbox you get 2GB for free before heading into monthly fees.

Technically, you can use the PlayOn work around. You have to intall an app on your PC and the client on your profile, get an account with PlayOn and it streams from Netflix to your PC to your Phone. At least, thats my understanding.

They have the ability but won't do streaming on Android because they're paranoid about protecting their content. Arrrr

Yeah thats what Im saying, I dont mind paying for netflix, but if I have to pay playon as well, it just seems unnecessary and redundant!
They made an app for it, even demo'd it. However, it got leaked and people used it. You can use it to manage your queues though. Just can't seem to stream.

Netflix App not supported for Thunderbolt...

Wow... Netflix App just showed up in the Market...
Supported Devices:
• HTC Incredible with Android 2.2
• HTC Nexus One with Android 2.2, 2.3
• HTC Evo 4G with Android 2.2
• HTC G2 with Android 2.2
• Samsung Nexus S with Android 2.3
Incredible and EVO 4G, but no Thunderbolt???
That's frustrating to say the least...

Your link is broken, and I don't see the app in the market. I call bull****. Besides, it was already announced that only 2nd gen snap dragon phones would get netflix? The Incredible and Nexus don't fit the bill. Hope I'm wrong, I can pickup an Incredible on craigs for nothin.

The link works fine. But it says that my Thunderbolt is "not a supported device."
The link is broken because of the http and https mashed together at the beginning. If you remove the https it works fine. It is definitely disappointing but I imagine they'll add support for the TB eventually.

Based on the permissions this app requires, it probably reads the build.prop file to determine which phone you are using.
Any way to trick the app into thinking we're using an Incredible or something?

I'm with you on the 2nd gen Snapdragon thing. Everything I read about the LG Revolution said that it could only run the Netflix app because it has a Qualcomm MSM8255 (same chip that is in the T-bolt).
so wait my girls one year old evo can play netflix but my brand new thunderbolt cant? Really watching windows 7 man.
somebody pulled the apk but it still does not work on the Thunderbolt. The apk seems to look at the phone it is on when loading. I dont have enough post to post a link so edit the following.

what happen to all that drm talk?
Give it some time. This is what Netflix says on their blog:
The Market download will initially be available only on select phones that currently have the requisite playback support. We expect to quickly add to the number of phones that can download from Android Market as we work with ecosystem partners to expand playback support.

It only makes sense for them to first support phones which have been out longer, and have a larger installed base.
Can it be that the reason the Thunderbolt won't be sporting Netflix is because Verizon had blockbuster preinstalled?
