R.I.P. NetflixItNow - a weekend hackathon Greasemonkey/Chrome extension that sent you an email when user-selected movies became available for streaming (not just disc delivery).

Though the project was short lived, I am very sad that it is no longer possible to implement similar projects.

Netflix API code (very simple): https://github.com/swanson/netflix-it-now/blob/master/check_...

They indicate they plan to continue providing access to CanIStreamIt, and I believe that website provides that service.
