A select few will now be able to watch Netflix movies instantly on their Macs using a new video player featuring Microsoft’s Silverlight technology.

The second generation player is initially only being rolled out to a small percentage of users but is expected to reach everyone by the end of the year.

The player will also work only on Intel-based Macs, which Netflix says currently account for about three-fourths of Mac units operated by Netflix subscribers.
