Actually, Netflix Streaming does support 5.1 DD sound now. They added support to it for the PS3 early last year, and supposedly added it to the Xbox with the last major dashboard update (though I haven't actually tested that yet).
But yes - BD always looks better than Netflix streaming, even at its highest quality, and in theory can also give better sound quality if you have a 7.1 DTS-HD system. They'll match it eventually, but the bandwidth isn't there just yet. That said, some of their HD content is comparable to BD and you have to look very hard to notice a difference.
