I just started looking at this... Frow what I can tell, the API provides much of the functionality of the NetFlix website... without using the website. For example, on can create code to search the NetFlix database for a movie name, then gather all of the informaiton (actors, desctiption, etc) about the movie. It also allows you to manage your rental queue. My goal is to see if its possible to incorporate the "play instantly" movies in XLobby.
