I'm not annoyed. I didn't like it on the PS3 to be honest. Besides it can always be added through a firmware update later on.

Do you have any digital music/video files? Without this or USB hard drive support, I don't see any way to use them on a PS4.

Well i do. I used to download a lot of MKV files and convert them to DivX to watch on the PS3, but since i found a way to make Netflix work on my dutch PS3, i haven't looked back :)

A USB harddrive support should be there already, since you can use an external HD and all. If not, i'm sure it will be added later. The media server thing came to the PS3 a couple of months after launch.

If the FAQ they also mention they don't support external hard drives as well. While I use both Netflix and LoveFilm, they aren't a complete substitute for being able to use digital files.
