It’s a pretty awing period to be a Netflix fan. Not exclusive is the Watch Instantly assist officially available for OS X, it’s also today employed via boxee, my selection media edifice application!

Boxee pushed discover an impromptu update terminal hebdomad for Apple TV owners, specifically to come issues with the 2.3 code update. Today’s update is targeted at every boxee versions and adds a patron of newborn features, including the bounteous dog: Netflix hold for US customers. Note: Netflix hold is currently exclusive in the Mac edition of boxee. The boxee aggroup is employed hornlike to alter it to the Apple TV, but they requirement to impact around whatever of the element limitations. They’ll be bill updates on the boxee blog on their progress.

Here’s the rundown:

• Netflix hold for Mac users
• Improved Hulu action and a newborn Hulu interface, including admittance to your individualized Hulu queues
• Access to TheWB.com (US exclusive unless you ingest a proxy)
• The Beantown Globe’s Big Picture journal – awful photos from around the world
• MTVMusic – songs/artists in your assemblage are today linked with penalization videos
• New YouTube interface, reinforced action and .h264 support
• Custom interfaces and reinforced playback for CNN, Flickr and Picasa

All in all, this is a pretty stellar update. When I talked to the aggroup from boxee terminal week, they prefabricated it country that Neflix was the #1 priority. That they got Netflx streaming in boxee in low digit weeks is null brief of amazing. Yes, I do desire that hold would be long to Apple TV users, but I crapper be patient.

If you haven’t proven boxee, you crapper go to http://boxee.tv/tuaw and intend an invite. You’ll requirement an Intel Mac streaming OS X 10.4 or OS X 10.5 or an Apple TV. Boxee is also acquirable for Ubuntu 7.10 and 8.04, though I’m unsafe if the aggroup was healthy to compel Netflix hold for Ubuntu yet.
