Why would they?
Excellent streaming services, designed to expertly FUCK CONSUMERS IN THE ASS.

Most EA games really. Awful licensed drek.
I did. I looked at the @yosp mentions and he's getting tons of tweets per minute about MP3's and DLNA support.

So PS4 got the edge in grafix while Xbone got dat Multimedia/Audioz hook-up for the G's

If the lack of MP3/DNLA support doesn't concern you, then the attitude behind that lack of support should.

lol wow this sucks. I thought Sony was about choice. I thought Sony was for the gamers, No Sony is about making money like everyone else. lol crazy part if this holds up then clearly the xbox one is the best multimedia device by a mile now.
I know you're being sarcastic, so I'll just say that we all know PS+ ''free games'' aren't free, but the worth of the selection is well worth the price, on top of the other advantages. PS+ isn't the only option if you want to play a game. You don't have to buy PS+ to play Contrast. But you have to buy Music Unlimited if you want to listen to your custom soundtracks and goal horns in NHL.
I think they usually nail licensed music w/ FIFA.

Dont know why, BUT, i like.
Xbox Music is a streaming service. Xbox Music Pass is a subscription tied to Xbox Music. One of the features is you can use Xbox Music offline. That page has nothing to do with playing your own music. It's not even about Xbox One. Do you guys think you can't play your own music on PC/360/tablet/phone just because you don't have an Xbox Music Pass (the devices actually discussed on that page)
Sure. But those will draw my attention/time from turning the PS4. Having my media content instantly and effortlessly available through my PS3 makes me turn it on, watch what's available on the Store, maybe even play a game or two all while I listen to my songs (on the games that support it, should be all too).

LOL, it figures. The games are great, but they both ultimately want to turn these consoles into subscription service boxes. I'm just glad that I have never given a shit about any of this and just want to play games. But wait! There is also a required sub for that as well if you want to play online using internet you already pay for.
You are just now realizing this?

They've got to patch this out, surely? Maybe they'll leave it as MU for a while to try and boost subscriptions...
I've never been one for custom soundtracks (putting media files on the PS3 at all for that matter), but I'd be pissed if I was and this was happening.

Missed this too. I hope too many people didn't invest after the video that German site did!

I used personal soundtracks one time this gen and that was for Wipeout HD. Sadly, I used mp3 playback and Synology via DLNA for a lot of PS3 music streaming. It is disappointing that that won't be possible at launch.
Didn't know not being able to play your own music is stopping you from playing games. Learn something every day.

Lame. Not that I use custom soundtracks much anyway, but it was a nice option to have.

Music i can understand but no DLNA is definatley a loss. I used it on my PS3 to view family vids and pics i had on my home server from our trips during the holidays.
Something that could easily be added with a firmware update is missing. Everybody cancel!!
It definitely is something that needs to be there and we should spam yosp about it, but wow people are grabbing pitchforks pretty quick.

No dlna????? NO DLNA??????? What in gods name.... I used my ps3 for all kind of dlna, streaming gametrailers, youtube whatever... Dropping this feature ... Seriously, i expect that feature
Sony is pissing me of right now

Im hoping that they just had to get PS4 out the door and MEDIA FUNCTIONALITY was something that hit the cutting room floor. Im sure though that hackers will find a way if Sony cant though.
Why are you (and the rest of people that are doing it) defending the fact that a 399$ 2013 machine isn't capable of reproducing MP3?
Honest question, it goes beyond my comprehension.
Yeah, this isn't a dealbreaker for me at all. The DLNA support is what I find perplexing. At least tell me it's coming shortly. I don't see how they don't change their mind on this.
And I thought there were rumours of Q Games (Entertainment? I always get those mixed up...) working on a new visualiser as well.I fucking loved the visualizer on the ps3 it might sound odd but I was really looking forward to a new visualizer

sucks but if im listening to music i generally do it from deh comp anyhow
Count me in for not using those features frequently, but even I think it's pure fuckery.
It's a bunch a crap and consumers/sony fans shouldn't stand for it.
