What more do you want from your PlayStation? Sony thinks it’s music, video and the ability to transfer all of this content between devices, including the PlayStation Portable (PSP).
Don’t call your couch space just; the first step is to have additional content available via Sony’s PlayStation Network, says the Financial Times. That would be nice, since Microsoft already offers high-def TV and film content on its Xbox Live service.
