I've had mine for about two or three weeks.  There's no hd content... DUH.  Its similarly gimped compared to the other streaming options.  No search for instance.

Uh , I'm not sure what else to add.  If you have it on something hd capable then that would be a better choice.  My little sister loves it because they have enough saccharine shit on here for her to indulge in.  We watched the entire first season of Avatar and its a pretty good show.

Netflix on XBL has search? Earnest question, not trying to be snarky

No, it doesn't.  I don't think any have a search function, to be honest.  Haven't really played with the PS3 version enough to say though.

The Wii version probably has the most functional interface, though.  XB version still da best though

by "search function" do you mean actually typing to search or just browsing?

nope, but you can browse categories, it doesnt really matter because netflix.com instantly adds movies to your instant queue anyways

In the ps3 and wii's defense, I think you can access the netflix website with the console web browser.
