My Take Radio

The title of the post is a lit­tle mis­lead­ing. It should be iPad + Net­flix Stream­ing = Poten­tially Awe­some. The movie com­pa­nies have imposed such crazy restric­tions on stream­ing to pro­tect their DVD cash cow that all of the movies you want at the touch of a but­ton just won’t be there. So the big news (unless this is an April Fool’s joke) is that Net­flix is going to offer a stream­ing ser­vice for the iPad. There really couldn’t be a more per­fect match. Watch­ing movies and TV shows on an iPhone is fine for short peri­ods of time, but watch­ing them on the larger and higher res­o­lu­tion screen is going to be a much more enjoy­able experience.

The big ques­tion: Is Net­flix the app that will get you to buy an iPad?
