I just looked at the neflix blog and on 4/15 they have began the process of adding cc and 5.1 DTS to select titles. I assume this process will be a long one and involve mainly thre HD streams they offer, but this a an exellent start:D! Looks like they have used Lost seasons 1-4 as the guinea pig.

    That.......is awesome. On the PQ side, I don't know if its just me, the the PQ overall seems better to me lately, and I have been getting messages in my email re: What I thought about the picture quality of
    ( whatever movie I just viewed). Maybe they are making an effort to improve both.
    I have a CAT5 cable coming, so that should help even more.

    make sure your netflix streaming device has a digital connection to your receiver and watch if the DD or DTS lights light up.
