xbox live logo Xbox 360 owners are loving their Xbox LIVE Netflix application. According to Microsoft, 1 million Xbox LIVE Gold subscribers have downloaded the application and in three months time, approximately 1.5 billion minutes of movies and TV episodes have been viewed via the application. That sounds like a pretty successful product don’t you think?

If you’re not familiar with the service, here’s what you need to get going.

1. Xbox 360 console along with an Xbox LIVE Gold subscription

2. Subscription to Netflix

3. Broadband Internet connection

Once you have those three components, all you’ll need to do is fire up the console, connect to Xbox LIVE, download the Netflix application, register the console with Netflix (you’ll need an Internet connected PC for that), and then start queuing up movies for the Watch Instantly service.

I’m a huge fan of the service – especially since it’s letting me catch up on old episodes of 30 Rock (yeah, I was a bit late to the show).

About the only complaint with the service is the fact that only 12,000 titles are currently available via Netflix’s watch instantly service. Hopefully studios will realize the popularity of the service and will make their content available.
