PS3 vs. Xbox 360...which should I get? (non-gamer)

[rudder]

Do you have to buy a subscription to an XboxLive type service on the PS3 so you can stream movies from another paid subscription... i.e., netflix.

Kinect is very cool... but this gold membership thing pisses me off.

No, PSN is free unless you want the extra goodies that PSN+ comes with (beta access, special deals, etc), as it should be.
