Sony Pictures' Films Unavailable Via Netflix Streaming on 360

Sony Pictures' Films Unavailable Via Netflix Streaming on 360

None

It didn’t take a genius to see this coming, but Netflix users will not be able to stream Sony Pictures’ films through the 360’s NXE. It seems as though Netflix has not been able secure the proper licensing to do so. Here’s what Netflix corp. communications VP Steve Swasey had to say:

“As watching instantly becomes a more prominent part of the Netflix service, our goal is to have all of our streaming content licensed for all of our partner devices. We’re doing well in this area, but it will take some time before we fully achieve that goal. Today, titles regularly come in and out of license and there is a natural ebb and flow to what we have on license at any given point in time. In the case of Xbox 360, a few hundred titles are temporarily unavailable to be streamed via the Xbox game console. Those titles are still available to be watched on subscribers’ computers and on TVs via other partner devices, and we hope they’ll be licensed for Xbox 360 shortly.”
