PlayStation Network to Expand in the Future

PlayStation Network to Expand in the Future

None

Sony Chief Executive Sir Howard Stringer remarked on the future of the PlayStation Network, stating that the PSN would spread its reach beyond consoles.

Speaking to the Financial Times, Stringer stated that “We are building a software infrastructure to distribute video and music, more particularly video, through the PlayStation Network. 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 handhelds] and beyond.”

Stringer continued to say “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,”

Coupled with the upcoming Home service, the PlayStation Network may eventually become vastly different from the spartan PSN PS3 owners have now.

We’ll keep you posted as news becomes available.
