Smile access netflix?

Ok, so I'm a noob to this part of sage and trying to figure out the best way to access my netflix without having to run a custom STV (Like SageMC, etc) or subscribe or buy some additional add-on (like PlayOn). I have no extenders, just server and clients (media PCs). I have the netflix software on the client, just trying to marry the two (not minimize sage to open netflix/browser).

I see that netflix offers both Public and Private RSS feeds....
http://www.netflix.com/RSSFeeds


so, could I just do something like the following:
Netflix Queue To Watch Instantly

In CustomOnlineVideoLinks.properties
NetFlixInstant/URLContext=http://rss.netflix.com/QueueEDRSS?id=XXXXXXXX

In the CustomOnlineVideoUIText.properties add:

Category/NetFlixInstant/ThumbURL=http://cdn.nflximg.com/us/pages/corporate/mediacenter/library/colorlogo.gif
Category/NetFlixInstant/LongName=NetFlix Instant
Category/NetFlixInstant/ShortName=NetFlix Instant



Would that work?

in short, no. the netflix RSS feeds do not point to playable streams. They point to the netflix web pages that host the custom player software. Even Playon does not access the streams directly, it basically loads up the custom silverlight player, hidden, and captures the playback, encodes it, and streams it to the upnp device.
