PS3 music video streaming in summer

Sony details and dates free 'VidZone' music video service
VidZone, a free music video streaming service, will launch on PS3 this summer as an integrated feature of the console's XMB menu.

The service will allow you to view thousands of music videos, streamed via the internet straight to the PS3, without asking you for single penny.

"It's a brand new, free service that gives you the freedom to view thousands of music videos on demand by streaming them directly to PS3.

The new software, which Sony says is "backed by several Major record labels as well as thousands of Independent labels", will pop up under the music icon on your PS3 XMB, as the screenshot on this page shows.

You'll also be able to "put together and save your own music video library, creating custom playlists for every occasion that you can stop, fast forward and rewind", explains Sony. You'll also be able to create playlists on your PSP while out and about, ready to stream on your PS3 when you get home.

VidZone CTO and director of digital business development, Michael Russo, says the new service "provides users one of the world's largest collection of music videos, allowing consumers to stream what they want, when they want it."

As long as it has all of T.I.'s videos we'll be happy.

Good feature. I have the music package on Sky, but hardly watch them as they all seem to consist of the same top 100 power ballads/disco/Rock etc.

Ludacris videos are the best!

The type of stuff I listen to will likely become censored. Sad

"Bitches and Hoes" will become "Female dogs and Ladies of the night". Crying or Very sad

Very nice, but I am still bloody waiting for Sony to fix the music they F****d up. The Last firmware update screwed all of my imported music up. They told me a patch was coming, well, were the f**k is it. Mad
