All Star Trek TV Coming To Netflix

tekgoblin writes "This is great news for all the Star Trek fans out there. Starting in July, every episode from every Star Trek series will be available for Instant Watch over Netflix. Right now Star Trek TOS is available for Instant Watch, and the movies, but that's all. Soon it will all be here for our viewing pleasure."

B. We get stories about your lovely CCTV system.
C. It's only THIS year that the US will have parity with the UK when airing Doctor Who.

Probably there are lots of us who aren't willing to invest much time in collecting videos to watch, instead preferring to mostly stream what we can find when we have time. The other choices are either too time consuming, overpriced, or legally risky.

Paying $8 a month isn't a hardship and you're contributing to our culture by paying those who produce our entertainment rather than leeching and not giving back for what you receive.

Sums it up nicely. For years we've been complaining that we'd gladly pay a reasonable fee for unlimited streaming, and not only does Netflix finally deliver that, it does it on more internet-enabled devices than any other provider.

I wasn't blaming Microsoft, I was blaming Netflix, and the various copyright holders that control them. Your own Roku example illustrates that there's no technical limitation to streaming on Linux (Roku, IIRC, runs Linux). I already have a nice HTPC running Linux. As you point out, I could by another piece of hardware to enable me to spend more money to subscribe to Netflix, but frankly, it's just not worth it to me. If someone expects me to be their customer, they should treat me like a customer, not like a pariah.
