Ronen: “Netflix support was the most common request we had on our blog comments, forum posts, tweets, etc. We heard you loud and clear. We were bummed that we could not make it happen earlier, but are very excited to have it out today.”
In order to watch movies streaming Netflix on the Boxee Box, viewers need to update the software on the Box.
