http://www.lovefilm.com/ is probably the closest thing to netflix. I don't think it's available in Ireland though, so you'd have to either visit it through a proxy or go without.

Would recommend LoveFilm, can stream to a Mac/PC/PS3/360 and all sorts.

Don't they actually send you the discs? I'd prefer to watch it online rather than physical goods or is that not possible?

I'm pretty sure Lovefilm and Netflix are owned by the same people, but yeah, its basically the exact same as netflix. You can stream most things, but they're are certain things only available on disc.

LOVEFiLM are owned by Amazon and Netflix are their own company.

I have a LOVEFiLM sub (which I am going to cancel) their online catalogue is something to be desired, not many good films are available in the £9.99 package I have.
