Well, M$ strikes again. I can't install Silverlight 2.0 on my C2D SR Macbook Pro . I am running Leopard 10.5.5 and the installer keeps saying I have a powerpc which is NOT true.
Why ask questions like this is Google broken or something? Google Netflix and you'll see its a US only mail based DVD rental service, that also does online streaming. To use this service you have to have a US address, as their main service involves sending DVDs in the mail.
You seriously think that incompetence is the reason behind their decision to not support PPC-based Macs? You realize that there's a good chance Blizzard will do the same thing with Starcraft 2 - are they incompetent as well? It couldn't have anything to do with the fact that most of the Mac userbase is on Intel now, and there will be only fewer PPC users in the future? How long do you think Adobe Creative Suite is going to support PPC? Or Microsoft Office?so +1 on the native PPC not avail. Why should we spend $$ and just toss out a perfectly good working computer just because they are to incompetent to make the app multi processor?
What?It would sure get the tree huggers panties in a bunch if I was being that wasteful.
Do you understand that it substantially increases development costs - and therefore decreases return-on-investment - for a company to support both PPC and Intel? Exactly how much money do you think they stand to make from devoting significant resources to support a fraction (PPC) of a fraction (Mac) of the total Netflix userbase?Economically, is makes no sense either.
Anybody else having trouble with the video quality auto-detect? Mine is coming up as "Basic" and saying I have a data rate of less than 1 Mbps even though most speed tests clock me at 1.8-2.1.
I tried watching a movie last night. I have an admittedly slow internet connection, but the movie quality was terrible.

Well there ya go! What did you expect for a slowwww connection?
Also, when you watch the movies, are they taken directly off my queue? What if someone else wants to watch it at a later date. And what if I need to stop mid-movie?
