Netflix Instant Streaming Disc for Wii *Giveaway*
For the past year we have been using our Roku to watch Netflix. In fact I am using it right now. It’s probably something I use on a daily basis and the best way to spend 9 dollars a MONTH! Netflix members who are also owners of a Wii console will be able to instantly watch thousands of movies and TV episodes streamed from Netflix directly to their TVs. The service will be enabled by a free, instant-streaming disc that is being made available to all Netflix members who have a plan starting at $8.99 a month. This extends the Wii as a gaming console and while most Wii systems are kept in the living room, offers families a variety of entertainment options!
To enable their systems to stream content from Netflix, Wii owners will need a Netflix instant-streaming disc for the Wii console, which will be available at no additional cost to Netflix subscribers. The free disc looks and operates the same as a disc-based Wii game, and the entire user experience will feel natural and intuitive to Wii console owners. Netflix members and Wii console owners can now reserve a free instant-streaming disc by going to www.netflix.com/Wii. Once available, the discs will be delivered for free by first-class mail.
When the instant-streaming disc is inserted into a member’s Wii system, an array of movie and TV choices will be displayed right on their TV screen. These titles will be conveniently organized into a variety of categories based on members’ personal preferences and will include popular genres, new arrivals and members’ individual instant Queues. Using the Wii Remote™ controller, members will be able to choose a movie or TV episode to watch from their instant Queues or pick one directly from any of the lists. They will also have the ability to read synopses and rate movies, and will have the option of fast-forwarding and rewinding their selection.
I received the Wii streaming disc free of charge, along with 3 months free Netflix service.
ONE winner who owns a Wii will receive the Wi Streaming Disc and 3 month membership to Netflix.

We had planned to purchase the Roku, but just never got around to it. And then we saw this and thought perfect. Another wonderful use for our Wii. We love to watch movies, but the movie channels tend to be pricy and play the same movies over and over again. This will be perfect for our family.
The whole idea is very exciting! We currently run into town to pick up movies that we want to watch and sometimes we end up with a movie that we didn’t want. To be able to have the movie we want to watch instantly is like a dream!

I won’t have to wait for my netflix in the mail.
To be able to finally have something on the wii that the kids do not kick my butt! While that gives them LOTS of laughs, they would like to do with me! Thank you so much for this opportunity!
I am most excited that I won’t have to wait for dvds to come in the mail
I think this is a very cool idea, I had seen it recently and put it on my wish list, it would be very cool to win it

I never thought the Wii would be capable of playing movies. I already use it to play games, read the news, and check the weather. I’m super excited to be able to use my Wii to stream videos now too.
I love that I don’t even have to mess with DVDs for my daughter. We can just pick out a show and she can watch it over and over.
not so much movies as i am excited to catch up on some tv shows, but movies would be great to pass the time with because it is instant streaming
I would be most excited to not have to wait for the DVD to come in the mail!
I can be comfortable and wear whatever I want to watch movies. And I can pause the movie for snack breaks.
I wouldn’t have to figure out a new input or watch movies on the laptop!

I’d be most excited about being able to watch something that I wanted to see (instead of just what’s on tv) when I wanted to watch it (aka, when I actually had a moment), and start and stop as needed…
Wow – what a great idea! We have a Wii that is mostly used for working out and sometimes games or party entertainment, but having it also able to stream Netflix movies would be very cool. We used to have a Netflix membership, but canceled after having problems with scratched or broken disks showing up or having to wait forever for the new releases. Being able to stream the movies would solve those problems.
simple, no more waiting for the mail man too deliver me new discs to watch. I have so many on my Q that are play now but no way to stream them

I don’t own a Wii but have been wanting to set up a Wifi system to stream Netflix. I have a lot of tv series in my queue that I love to watch.
I’m excited because there would be no more trips to Blockbuster, we could watch a movie whenever we want.
no late fees!!

Can watch it where I don’t have a computer setup
I’d love this because I wouldn’t have to wait on movies through the mail and if there was nothing on TV we could just pick something off of Netflix and watch it withough having to drive 10 miles to the closest video rental store (which by the way is in the next state!)
This would be great! No more running to the video store.
I am mst excited to watch them on my new flat screen that my wii is hooked to!
Thanks for entering me! Great Contest!

I would save a lot of money on rentals. I can also watch tons of movies and tv shows. Awesome!!!
great prize for someone like me who does not get out much to see movies
I love that my daughter can watch them in her room!!
Thanks for the chance.

I love that i wont have to go anywhere to see it and I dont have to return anything.
I currently don’t watch a lot of movies because of the hassle. Having them come thru my Wii is perfect.
I was looking at the Netflix site and they have a lot of TV shows available too. I’d love to catch up on the episodes of Bones I’ve missed through the Wii.

We have the streaming disc for PS3, and I love that I can watch TV shows and a selection of other films when there is nothing good on television.
The convenience and immediacy excite me.
And here’s my tweet: http://twitter.com/ky2here1/status/12427425874
I’m most excited about this because it means I don’t have to buy an extra device and I can watch some of my movies instantly.

The ability to see them on our big screen tv vs the laptop.
been wanting to try the ‘on demand’ feature for some time, no more waiting for the mail!
I’m happy that I won’t have late fees.
I would be happy not to have to leave home to rent a movie and watch it on my tv. That sounds so cool.

This is great. Currently we are always going to redbox. This would be better than the hassle of taking the kids to the theater. We will most likely be watching a lot of kids movies with this.

I love the idea of not having to make a trip to the video store to return the video and not paying overdue fees.

Being able to watch movies instantly would be wonderful! I hate going to Blockbuster and paying $5 just to rent something.
You can have the movies at the click of a button instead of having to go to the video store or wait for them in the mail
VERY convenient!!
My daughter is only 19 months old, but she is very smart when it comes to electronics. I think her being able to watch movies on the Wii would be exciting for her…and give me a few minutes to get some cleaning done without her trying to ‘help’.
We can movie parties at the house more often!
love old TV series and I can watch an entire season with out having to wait for the disc to arrive

Okay this is so cool! I just set the Wii up on the internet this afternoon! This would be fantastic to have!

I love to watch documentaries and Netflix has a nice selection. It would be so cool to start one any time I want, no discs to wait for or mail back.
i like that you can watch movies instantly on my wii!
The most exciting thing is that we wouldn’t have to wait for a movie to come in the mail. We could watch a movie any time we feel like it.

I’m definitely most excited about being able to choose the movie I’m most in the mood to see at a given moment — a lot of the time the type of movie I feel like watching changes between selecting a Netflix film to be mailed and actually receiving it the next day, so this option would be great!

I’m excited because right now we have no way to watch movies. We did have a portable dvd player, but its busted and my computer won’t play dvd’s anymore, maybe because it’s just old. It’s been so long since we’ve seen a movie at all, any movie would be a treat.

Instant movies, too easy!!
This would make it wonderful for hubby and me to watch some movies together at night alone and for the kids to watch what they want during the day! Really great and so so useful! Lovin’ it! Thanks!

Being able to watch in the living room where the Wii and the TV are would be the most exciting thing to me.
I had to give up Netflix for financial reasons and miss it so much! If I could get it back AND be able to stream movies on our Wii it would be SO great!
I can finally get caught up on some of the movies I’ve been dying to see for the last 6 years! Thanks for the contest!
It just seems so much easier! I’d love it.
With so many kids It’s great to be able to watch things at home since we have the ability to pause and rewind.
I am most excited about having instant access to fun movies for my three year old!!
I will be able to get instant movies for my boys when we have a couple over to play cards.
I like not having to worry about returning them!
