Netflix for Xbox 360 updates with better contrast and episode navigation
Got both an Xbox LIVE Gold membership and a Netflix account? Well, you'll be treated to a slightly revamped steaming video app on your 360 today.

New navigation options allow you to skip around movies much quicker during playback and even jump immediately to the next episode of a show.
