Hulu coming to PlayStation Network 'soon,' according to Bloomberg report

@mairondil Licensing reasonings is exactly why I bet Canada wouldn't get anything out of this. ;)

(and why does Joystiq randomly choose to make my name "(Unverified)" almost every other time I post? I mean, the last time I posted before this article, my name showed up)

@(Unverified)

Have you verified your account?

This joystiq account/comment system sucks. You can truely reply to a reply, you can't change your email address, you can't change your display name

@mairondil I think it has something to do with this new layout screwing things up. I'm pretty sure I verified my account a long time ago, as my name showed up before the change, and also randomly after the change (as I've mentioned).

My RSS feeds for Joystiq PS3 randomly change between things like "Joystiq" and "Joystiq PS3" and it keeps on jumping back between the two names. But seriously, everything was working fine before. I don't get why they needed to change anything.

@(Unverified)

There's no longer a Joystiq PS3, and you are usually able to fix the unverified problem by "signing out" and "signing in" on the top-left of the page.

And there were a bunch of problems before the change, none of which seemed to get fixed :/


Still looks awesome though.

@TOYBOXX I think Sony and Microsoft both envisioned that their gaming systems would give them a foothold in homes allowing them to become media hubs for any form of entertaintainment... movies, television, music, videos, and pictures. It's conceivable they could offer DVR support (The technology behind U-Verse is Microsoft. Sony has already made a Playstation DVR in the past). And they could someday replace cable boxes (Microsoft was playing around with IPTV in the UK). So I wouldn't be surprised if they offered more than gaming, however I don't see these options getting in the way of gaming, but merely appealing to more members of the family (or anyone outside of gaming) and offering companies like Sony and Microsoft the ability to generate additional (and likely steady) revenue.

@Inspace2020 "If SONY could've had the deal done by E3 they would've stole the show IMO (along with all the exclusive games they announced)."

Yes, I agree completely. It would have been something like:

MS: We have ESPN, nice huh?

Sony: WE HAVE HULU BITCHES *drops the mic*

@Deezul AwT

Isn't XBox Live Gold $50/yr? That's the same prices as PSN+

With XBox, you pay to play (online).
With Sony, you pay for extras, Play(online) is still free.
