They say, “never go full HD”, but Netflix paid no heed to the warnings and announced today that their Instant Watch streaming service would be going FULL HD. For people with PS3’s, Xbox 360’s, and internet capable televisions, this means you can enjoy movies and shows in full 1080p and 5:1 surround sound.

As expected, initial offerings in full HD will be scarce as only 6% of their current library supports this quality. The full HD streaming will be available later this year.
