Hasn't this been discussed enough on here. All this will do is repeat the same conversation over and over again.
Yes! Of course people would like to have it.

This is actually one of the bluegras posts I don't mind seeing. Would love to see a Netflix app on the Hopper. I think it would help Dish more than it hurts.
I don't see why Dish wouldn't want to. If it's a competitor why not offer their service so customers can have both but using the device you make. This should help keep customers sticky.
I wouldn't mind seeing an application on the hopper for Netflix. Would keep me from changing to my blu-ray player everytime to watch netflix.
Cable companies that offer TiVo for their DVR have Netflix disabled on the TiVos they provide.
I suppose I can see how it takes away from the PPV and VOD services they offer but I can't imagine Dish is making much off of those anyway.
What I would like to see is the MLB.TV App on the Hopper. That way we don't need the Extra Innings thingy...but we could still access the games via our existing accounts with MLB. That would also take less bandwidth than using EI. (I think)
With a chromecast I don't see the need, unless the Hopper tries to incorporate all kinds of streaming services I'm not sure what the advantage would be. (And I realize not everyone has chromecast but I feel it's the best way to get the supported streaming material to a tv)
They MIGHT be able to get some "interesting" metrics of who's watching what if NF shares with their App Hosts......
I don't think I have used DISH pay per view again, since we got the free pay per view coupons. Way to HIGH in price.
Given the Netflix/Dish promotion discussed in this thread: http://www.satelliteguys.us/xen/threads/dish-netflix-tie-up.337323/
It would seem more likely, because as was mentioned earlier once the Disney/Marvel films leave premium cable to go to Netflix it would be far better for Dish for them to allow access on their equipment almost like another premium choice than for people to go outside their ecosystem, find out they like it and "cut the cord".

I think that it would be another good selling point if Netflix was included. Most people that want Netflix already have a way to view it on their TVs, so I do not think that Netflix would be any more competition than it is now. It will be a lot more convenient to have the Netflix interface readily available within the Dish software and would make Dish more attractive to new customers.
I would love to see this app on the hopper. Dish could get a great deal going of a price that's a fantastic deal for customers.

I think the vast majority of us want it and we think it makes business sense to do so.
But anyone know the technical challenge there? Is it possible? Streaming an additional video feed through one of the apps? How about porting the Netflix interface through the Hopper? It would be cool, but lordy we don't need no more bugs.
