Netflix TV Remote Button? Say WHAAA

Well I guess we don't really need regular TV anymore people, Netflix is changing the game. Again. The crazy thing is that nobody knows its coming. Netflix announced from the Consumer Electronics Show on January 4th that they have teamed up with a number of the world's leading consumer electronics companies  in a development effort to place Netflix-branded one-click buttons on remotes that operate Internet connected TVs, Blu-ray disc players, and other devices that connect the Internet to the TV. 


Companies set to start releasing remotes THIS SPRING include Best Buy's in-house Dynex brand, Haier, Memorex, Panasonic, Samsung, Sharp, Sony, and Toshiba. 

So basically Netflix is flying under the radar silently making features like OnDemand, and quite possibly TV in its entirety, their bitch.
