    Good to see their getting more up-to-date with their availability of their media library.

    Now... if we could get Hub content available for purchase on say... PSN/Xbox Live Marketplace? That'd be baller.

    Animated, plz?

    Already have G1 & BW on dvd, but I had RAH already in my Netflix queue, so adding it to Instant will be great.

    It's not a lot but it's one hell of a start.

    Wish we had a firm release date.

    I *just* started watching Beast Wars yesterday (man that first episode is rough, but I'm sure it gets better). Now that it's on Netflix I can use the resume feature to watch anywhere. Very, very happy about this news.

    This is for Netflix streaming. The DVDs have always been there.

    Have to wonder if Beast Machines, RID, Armada, Energon, and Cybertron will ever be added. Wouldn't mind seeing the Japanese shows up either, but I think that might be asking a bit much.

    G1, Beast Wars and Prime being on Netflix doesn't affect me much because I have all the DVD boxed sets. But I'm pretty excited to hear about Rescue Bots. My 3 year old daughter and I have the fire house and play with it regularly, and she gets excited whenever I can manage to track down a Rescue Bots episode online for us to watch together. Having it on Netflix will make things SO much easier for us.

    I wonder if this deal includes Netflix Canada or is the US is getting all the goodness?

    I bet the Unicron trilogy and Animated coming to streaming would be hampered by Hasbro's partnership with Cartoon Network (buncha bastards), but Beast Machines and RiD shouldn't be too difficult.

    I never got to see a single episode of RiD, and I've only seen a handful of episodes from Armada et al.

    This is good news. I was glad to see Prime added recently. I made it a point to rank it highly and watch them again. Although, since I just bought the Blu-ray not too long ago (and watched immediately) I often just started the episode and walked away. I want to give Transformers eps some good numbers on Netflix. If they see a big surge in watchers maybe it will make deals easier in the future.
