Reports coming from Netflix detailing their first quarter earnings show some impressive numbers. Overall, 7% of Americans subscribe to Netflix – outnumbering subscribers for the nation’s largest cable provider, Comcast. As alarming as these numbers may be to cable providers and networks, Netflix has been constantly increasing in popularity as a way for consumers to enjoy movies and television shows from their TV lift cabinets.
Aside from streaming movies, Netflix has recently signed on for an original TV series starring Kevin Spacey and the company has several deals in the works that allow them to show past season episodes of TV shows. With online TV and streaming media becoming so popular, cable networks fear that Netflix may be encroaching on their territory. Networks like HBO and Showtime aren’t sold on the benefits of Netflix. Netflix executives argue that by showing their past season episodes, they are essentially marketing the new season for the networks. Regardless of some networks

There’s nothing like getting the family together in the living room, pushing a button to raise your flat-screen TV out of an ImportAdvantage TV lift cabinet and watching your favorite film on DVD or in 3-D. The question we ask, though, is how did you rent your favorite movie in 2010? If you’re like most people, you probably didn’t get it from a brick-and-mortar movie rental store. It seems that they are things of the past, for now.
In a new study from the NPD Group, standalone movie rental kiosks, i.e. Redbox stations, surpassed the traditional retail store in the U.S. last year for movie rentals. As far the total market for movie rentals goes, Netflix still has the “lion’s share” of rentals, taking up 41% of all rentals by the 3Q of 2010. But now kiosk rentals take up another 31% of the market, leaving about 27% of the market to retail stores. That means that only one out of four films rented in 2010 came from driving or walking up to retail shop, perusing the walls of DVDs, picking one

Last month, Panasonic announced that its line of 2010 VIERA CAST televisions is now capable of streaming Netflix movies without the need for an external streaming device. This new capability complements the VIERA CAST’s current ability to connect users to Skype, Twitter, Pandora, Picasa and local weather and news.
Netflix currently has about 15 million members and is the largest subscription service for streaming movies and TV episodes over the Internet. Previously, Netflix members could only stream movies and TV episodes via a computer, capable gaming console (i.e. XBOX 360) or a streaming device (Roku player). Now, with the VIERA CAST, movies can be viewed from the comfort of a home TV and more room will be available in one’s entertainment center or TV lift cabinet.
Imagine, having more room in your ImportAdvantage TV lift cabinet to store DVDs, games, books or keepsakes. These fine handcrafted pop-up TV cabinets are already generous in their storage space, but by being able to reduce
