“We are building a software infrastructure to distribute video and music, more particularly video, through the PlayStation Network,” said Sir Howard Stringer, Sony chief executive, during an interview in Moscow. “That is a Japanese and American combined effort to build a platform around a common software architecture to distribute video via the PlayStation network into the PSP and beyond.”
“We are trying to get our devices to talk to each other efficiently. PlayStation Network should migrate from gadget to gadget. But initially it starts with PlayStation devices and then to TV and beyond. That’s the goal,” says Stringer.
No official release period was given for the new service, but he stated: “We won't know how effective it will be until early next year.”
That's all well and good, but given the lack of film and TV content that we have received from Microsoft due to copyright issues (among others), the future of this new PS3 service in Australia is unknown at this point. Hopefully we don't get left out in the cold for too long.
