Netflix Coming To Sony PS3
itwbennett writes "'Microsoft has always seemed rather enthusiastic when it comes to throwing around the word 'exclusive,' and here is another case in point,' says blogger Peter Smith. Netflix and Sony have announced that Netflix streaming is coming to the Sony PlayStation 3 as early as next month. Back in August, when Microsoft was rolling out its new dashboard update, one of the features it was talking up was Netflix streaming, says Smith, and it said, 'This exclusive partnership offers you the ability to instantly stream movies and TV episodes from Netflix to the television via Xbox 360. Xbox 360 will be the only game console to offer this movie-watching experience...' Apparently, in Microsoft parlance, 'exclusive partnership' means 'we launched it first' and not 'we inked a deal with Netflix preventing this feature from appearing on the competition's hardware.' All this is good news for PS3 owners who can now sign up to be notified of Netflix availability for their system."
This will be more convenient than hooking up my laptop every time I wanna watch a Netflix movie. My delightful fat PS3 is always connected to the TV, just like Sony is always connected to the pulse of the American consumer! I want to go bobbing for Apples with Sony, and now I can, with a BD-Live implementation of Netflix screaming!

Look, if you don't know what a word means, then don't use it, because you just end up looking like a fucking moron.
"Exclusive" means "prevent from entering", "shut out"
It does *not* mean "we're the only one's doing this"

Wow, you MS apologists just don't quit, do you?
Here's the thing: If it was exclusive then what caused the exclusivity to change?
If it was just "oh, now someone else wants to do it", which is the case here then it wasn't exclusive.
The key question is: was Sony excluded before now?
No, they weren't. Which means it wasn't exclusive
