Meedio plugins: Netflix & Launch
I installed a couple of new plugins for Meedio that are really pretty cool.

One is a Netflix Importer. It allows you to view your Queue, Recommendations list, Top 100 list and New Releases list in Meedio. The importer works by using the RSS feeds that Netflix generates for each user account. Just snag the ID string from the end of your Netflix RSS feeds then paste that into the importer. In addition to the movie title, the importer grabs the cover art, too.

The other one is the Launch Videos plugin. It allows you to import the path to all of the videos on launch.yahoo.com by genre. So if you want to have access to Rock, R&B and Rap videos, for example, you simply check the box next to those genres. The importer then downloads all the paths. When you combine the Launch Videos plugin with the meeMusicVideos plugin, you can create a playlist of music videos.
