Dish Network app turns your PS3 or PS4 into a virtual set-top box

Doesnt ps3 already have the Time Warner/XFINITY/Comcast apps? Theres like 1000 streaming apps for almost every provider on ipad/android/xbox/ps3/pc. Only thing that sucks about it is you cant get specialty channels(HBO/NHL/NFL/NBA) and even with a beast of a connection like mine, it still craps out quite a bit.

As I understand it, this is an extender to your home dvr. Stuff you have recorded in the living room can be watched in other rooms via your home network. Something my cable provider likes to ask $13 a month for or $321 purchase per extender.
