    Cheapest way to get netflix on the tv?

    Can I buy an old tivo box and use it to subscribe to netflix?
    They want netflix "on the tv" and I don't want to have to put a computer in there

      www.roku.com or just buy a tv that gives you access to Netflix as part of the tv.

              You can buy internet/Google TV's that have it on there.

              I have a Sony Internet TV. It comes with a keypad remote. Kind of tricky. But you can pick NetFlix from the menu and stream videos among many other things.

                  Either use the free Wii/PS3/Xbox app, or the Roku is $59.

                  I'm using my Wii for streaming and it works great, but going to add a Roku here soon for a second tv.

                    on the xbox 360 you must have Xbox Live Gold in order to use Netflix so it's not free.

                      Wow, that sucks. I assumed it'd be free.

                        The Roku works well for parents, and elderly - however, the new 'all shows by show name' modification they've made means that trying to watch 'Cheers' means a 6 minute 'wait while we see what episode info we have'.

                        Roku is 'Six' in Japanese. Now I know why.

                          In a way it is, but you need xbox live gold in order to access is which that will cost you $60/year or so. Of course, that gives you access to everything else so it's not a netflix thing. Would be nice if they (microsoft) made so even xbox live silver accounts could download the netflix app and actually use it. Not sure why they didn't.

                            I love the roku. That thing gets more use than the xbox and cable box combined.

                                    The app is awesome....Netflix instant is not.

                                    I wish I could find one fucking thing on Netflix instant to watch. It's all crap.

                                      I use my Xbox but sometimes I also just hook my laptop up to my TV with a video cable lol. Only problem is the sound comes out of the laptop.

                                        Yeah this is why I havent set up - I think they also make you take the most expensive netflix plan.
