This is a bit premature. The article points out that an announcement may be imminent but doesn't have any actual information on how to run Netflix on Ubuntu.<p>(But there is a tantalizing screenshot. I do believe it's possible, just not public yet.)

Agreed, this is through wine, but if this is real, it's awesome!<p>Edit : Actually, it does look real : <a href="http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&#38;px=MTIyOTc" rel="nofollow">http://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=news_item&#38;px=MTIyO...</a> Basically, silverlight through a patched version of wine. Good Work!

Groan... all we need is DRM in Silverlight. I hate DRM, but I like Netflix. Why can't we just get M$ to allow their DRM code to run on Linux?? That would solve the problem without all this WINE non-sense.

Compiling. Too excited for this.
