Accessing the Netflix Database Using Flex

    I would like to use Flex to access the general data on Netflix. I don't have to have users sign into their accounts at this time. I just want them to be able to make lists of movies and save them to an account they make.
    Any idea what the best way to go about this is?
    Is there a better way?

    You don't need users to authorize you app to access the catalog data. Just use your consumer_key and sign the requests like you would a request for a request token.

    If you're not sure how to go about using Oauth with Flex, there's a nice tutorial here:

    I haven't gotten around to futzing with Flex yet, but it looks like that tutorial covers the bases nicely.
