News: Xbox360 & Tivo to get Netflix HD Streaming

Great news for Netflix subscribers.  The 360 and Tivo are both scheduled to receive interface updates that will allow them to stream HD and SD content to your TV.  The 360 streaming is expected first with the Fall update coming in the first weeks of November, and the Tivo update is expected in early December.

The Tivo update is only coming for the Tivo HD and Tivo Series 3 units, and none of the updates will include any extra fees associated with them. No real word yet on what the quality of these streaming services will be like, however HD content is expected to be similar to the Apple TV (around 4-5 MBps compression)

News: LG Netflix Blu-Ray Player BD300 shown

Well, it doesn’t play back your entire video library, but this is certainly an interesting combo device.  I expect we’ll see lots of things like this in the coming months.

Seen first on Gizmodo:

LG’s Netflix-streaming, Blu-ray 2.0 playing BD300 made its public debut tonight, and we’re impressed. The box is slim and it won’t take up more space on your shelf than any other player. An LG exec confirmed a September launch for the sub-$500 player, so check out the gallery and start lickin’ your chops.
