blu-ray netflix subtitles?

Does there exist a regularly updated list of Blu-Ray players that are capable of showing the subtitles on Netflix's streaming service?
Response by poster: The compatibility page at Netflix.com only provides links to manufacturers' pages showing which hardware which can play streaming Netflix movies, but there's no listing at Netflix or the mfr sites as to whether that hardware's firmware can present visible English language subtitles pulled from the Netflix stream.

I don't know if you're still looking for information about this, but last night I discovered a useful trick.
The key is to search for "Netflix features on your ___ Blu-Ray Player" and replace the blank with a manufacturer name. You'll get a Netflix support page which lists a number of streaming-compatible devices, and whether or not that player can support subtitles and/or captions.
Here are a few manufacturer pages that I found this way:
- Sony
- LG
- Panasonic
- Samsung
