Netflix, Open up or die…

This feature from Engadget is nice, but I just wanted to nitpick, because the particular line I have an issue with is now being quoted elsewhere. The quote says:

Open up. Google did it, Amazon did, Apple did it, Netflix— expose your API so people out there can use www.netflix.com the way they want to, in new ways, in ways you haven’t imagined.

I don’t mean to break the euphoria, but although they may have developed a seemingly neat thing or two, they do not have an open API for the iPod or iTMS. (See also: iTunes Music Store wins a Webby when it’s not even a Web site)
