Netflix says exploring partnerships for TV video

Neflix is exploring sending movies and videos to television sets through Web-connected high-definition DVD players and Internet-connected game consoles, said Chief Executive Officer Reed Hastings on Monday, reports
Reuters.

"We are trying to understand the best ways to provide inexpensive viewing of online content on the television," he said.

Netflix, the leader in online DVD rentals, in January unveiled its long-awaited Internet movie delivery feature, which allows subscribers to play back about 1,000 mostly older movies in real time via streaming video.

The company for quite some time has said it was looking to extend that service from PCs to the television."
