It’s not clear whether or not it’s a brand new application, but as one role is for a User Interface Developer it’s likely that if it’s not, it’s an existing tool that’s getting a facelift.
Vidzone? Unlikely. PlayTV, possibly, but that doesn’t stream movies that wouldn’t normally be classified as TV.
The other jobs are for a C/C++ Engineer and a JavaScript Developer, all of which specifically mention a “movie/TV streaming application for PlayStation 3” except the C/C++ programmer, which just states “video”.
All the roles are with SCEE’s Research and Development group, suggesting whatever this is, it’s potentially some way away.

A lovefilm type service would be good. I’d consider a subscription service to watch Sony/Columbia films.

Could it be for the vita 3g? Catch up tv just about works on my iPhone… When I sit absolutely still and only for as long as I can hold my breath!

For 10 minutes?

It’s specifically mentioned it’s for the PS3.

Hope it’s not to do with Play TV as it’s not available in my area.

TVCatchup on Vita ?
Sounds like a winning formula to me, hope it’s something like that.

Lovely, Mike, as always.
Reality Check
“Sony Working On “PS2 Playback on a PS3”
Now that would be “Interesting” Not another non-gaming thing for the PS3 :-/

I’m not interested in pay per view but if it’s a free app that replaces using those browser links to watch tv i’ll be interested.
