I know it's groundbreaking, but the gameplay really isn't that fun which is all I care about with my games. @Matt I believe at some point in the future they will be able to access the Netflix without the disc, but for now this is how it will work in the beginning.

Why don't they have the software on their website allowing people to download it onto a USB or through the internet and simply upload it to the system. As a Wii owner, I like this though. Just so you know, the Wii is the most ground breaking system out there right now. Sure the graphics on the PS3 and Xbox are better, but the gameplay is ages behind what the Wii can do.
