Sony-MicroSoft cat fight through Netflix….
>via Xbox360fanboy.com
Seems like Sony is not really getting hurt by the “financial crisisâ€â€¦..
Circuit City is closing stores. All tv and home entertainment stuff is selling less…..all over the world…. You would think that Sony would try to get every dollar out of every chance they get uh…??
Not Sony….
Some people probably know about the introduction of “new software†for the Xbox360, which is released today…
It includes a new “desktop†screen – some funny wii-avatary puppets…… and….. members of Netflix would be able to get their movies via the Xbox360 online…. (for free)….
Nice feature uh…??
Well; Sony didn’t like that last one at all….. as they make the Playstation 3 and also try to offer movies on their system….
And what are you going to do if you (Sony) don’t like it…???
Well; you (Sony) make sure that Microsoft gets no “profit†out of your merchandise….
AND Sony is the owner of Columbia Pictures – sooooooooo Netflix is not allowed to offer the Colombia movies via the Netflix-Xbox360 network….
Childish…? Don’t think so….
Smart….? Maybe not………….
Do I care…? Not really – as we (uh… Holland) have no Netflix…..and even don’t know when that service would come to Holland….
