Netflix confident of PS3 disc supply, details
Wary that Netflix might run out of supply for the disc that they’re distributing to patrons being offered for free for the PS3?

Wary that Netflix might run out of supply for the disc that they’re distributing to patrons being offered for free for the PS3? VP for Corporate Communications Steve Swasey allays those fears, reassuring that there will be ample supply for every PS3 user who will request for the instant streaming disc.
While distribution details are still being ironed out, what is important at this point is that “We’re confident we’ve produced enough discs,” said Swasey. Stores who will be distributing the discs apparently already have them in stock, so really, it’s just a matter giving them out to those who ordered them once Netflix gives the stores their green light. “No VIP list or special circumstance list,” too, so everyone will definitely be getting it around the same time.
Swasey also disclosed that they do, in fact, plan on releasing an update in due time, to answer the question of why they did not just release an integrated solution in the first place. “We haven’t given any reason. The key thing here… it’s very easy and no different than playing a video game. We’ll have an update in time.”
Wait for that update in 2010. But in the meantime, place your reservations for the Netflix PS3 disc now.
