Free Netflix Trials Bundled With Bond
By Rob Crossley
US copies of the new Bond game Quantum of Solace appear to be bundled with a voucher offering a free 48-hour subscription to Netflix’s online streaming service.
Reports show that the Netflix streaming service offer is attached to Microsoft’s own 48-hour Gold Live trial coupons. It is currently unclear whether both offers are tied to the same redeem code, or if both trial services can be sampled independently.
In tandem with the launch of Microsoft’s NXE, Netflix will offer 360 owners subscriptions to its video service, providing some 12,000 SD videos that can stream straight to the console.
The 48-hour Netflix offer will not be valid in the US until Nov 19 when the 360’s new dashboard system officially launches.
