I am a big fan of Netflix streaming. All of the unlimited Netflix plans (starting at $8.99 a month) include the streaming service “anytime, anywhere” for a subset of the overall Netflix DVD catalogue. There are plenty of movies and documentaries that my wife and I have watched on a whim due to Netflix streaming. There is a rumor today that Netflix streaming could possibly come to the iPhone. We will just have to wait and see what comes of this…

Rumor: Netflix Streaming Coming To The iPhone

“Multichannel News wrote a story a few days ago that Netflix’s Watch Instantly streaming service would soon have an app in Apple’s App Store as well be available on the Nintendo Wii, citing an industry executive familiar with Netflix’s plans. Both of these devices would seem to play well into Netflix’s strategy of getting its service on as many consumer devices as possible (already it’s on the Xbox 360, Blu-ray players, the Roku box and built into a few TVs). But this rumor is interesting for a few reasons.”

I suggest checking out the rest of the piece over on Techcrunch.

What do you think AT&T and Apple’s response will be if an application is created?

AT&T will most likely require that the application is limited to Wifi streaming only (similar to Slingbox). How will Apple respond?
