Netflix looking to add 5.1 audio to Watch Instantly this year



CNET is reporting that in Netflix's 2010 development road map they are looking to add both 5.1 audio streams and closed captioning to it's streaming HD videos later this year. Earlier in the day claims of also adding 1080p were reported, but Netflix has since reclaimed that statement, simply saying that 1080p is not in the books for this year.

Adding 5.1 to Watch Instantly is definitely enough to get this blogger to start using the service again, the next problem is content. Currently only about 6% of the current offerings stream in HD, will 5.1 audio take just as long to trickle down to the flicks you want to see?
