Exactly. As I understand it (maybe one of our American friends can confirm this), but US Netflix customers get a mail queue for DVDs, and an instant queue for streaming. Obviously the DVDs are a non-issue here, but why not let us make a streaming queue?
I saw a screenshot of the "new" disc-less interface that was released to US customers on Monday, which is all that we've every known here in Canada. The only difference: an instant queue. The iPhone app store screenshots show an instant queue.
Not sure why we can't have that too. Like you said, searching is one thing, but making a list of things to watch would add so much more value. I have been making bookmarks in Firefox to flag stuff that I'd like to watch, which does nothing for me on my iPhone or PS3. And the PS3 is where I'll watch 95% of the content.
