Netflix on Windows 7 Media Center

There is was.  More than likely there is some type of download, so be patient and it should arrive in short order.

I think the gist of your post is about how there is no ability for this plugin to work with Media Center Extenders.  That is about par for the course, as most DRM'd content is not allowed on externders.  Netflix does have an XBOX 360 plugin which is fantastic (and should cover the majority of extenders out there, as well as yours).
