Netflix receives hardly noticeable update on Xbox 360

4.6
The Netflix app for Xbox 360 received an update today that improves some functionality, while completely ignoring most things we would notice. Adjustments include the ability to skip forward and back during play through movies and TV episodes, and a zoom function for those with 4:3 screens to convert letterbox to full screen.

Other tweaks include social media integration for Facebook outside of the States. There's also a single sign-on with cloud profiles, allowing members to access Netflix on another Xbox 360 (like, at a friend's house) with sign-in credentials.

Still not fixed: TV episode selection instead of auto-starting shows and lack of Xbox keyboard interface instead of that sloppy search string of letters. Not that we're bitter or anything.

If I had nothing to live for I'd go to the CEO of Netflix's house and tell him to bring back parties or else ill make him watch my little pony for 24 hours straight with no one in his party to comfort him.

The only thing they need to update: allowing friends to watch movies and TV shows together. I'm sure they lost many customers because they haven't fixed it yet. I know I'm one of them.

Map Sad how they still haven't brought back watching with friends.

That was the best! it was always better that way.
I want to know what problem they had with it and why they can't just fix those problems so we can have this amazing feature again!
