What?  No MP3s on PS4?  How do we make custom playlists for raing games?   I'm not listening to the 95% shit devs put in them...

Yeah, they add the feature that you can choose your music and then don't let you use it unless you use Music Unlimited... Though I think you can use some of that for free, it seems a bit on Sony's part

Disappointed with no MP3, no audio CD and no DLNA support. These are 3 features that I use on my PS3.

I am curious how they will give out / sell soundtracks to games, since those were either CD or MP3 downloads.



eh....I have PS3 and a Vita so I'm good.



Well, that doesn't sound good at all. Is it a software matter, so they might enable it later on? It would surprise me if it didn't work for X1 since you can sync 360 very easy with W8.

You get to pay Sony for Music Unlimited..... Someone has said the xbox is the same. But I doubt that rumour.

Why not google it if you refuse to believe it? Start here, for example: http://www.neowin.net/news/microsoft-xbox-one-wont-be-a-windows-media-center-extender

That's a different thing than DLNA. Which was never said about the xbox. Also I was refering to MP3's anyway. But I think that was more of a misunderstanding than anything.



It's a bit disappointing.

I used to use my X360 to stream Amazon Video off my PC before they made the app. I know some of my friends use their PS3 as a media center to stream from their computer.



 

Really not sure I see any point of Consol over PC's since Kinect, Wii and other alternative ways to play have been abandoned.

Tell me a funny joke!

Not really. However, MP3s not being supported on the PS4 pissed me the fuck off. Why, Sony. why?

Certainly not preorder cancelling like some people are overreacting but very stupid move on Sony's part just so i'm forced to use their music unlimited crap

Absolutely agree! It's ridicolous.



To all the people saying they don't think Microsoft would do the same.

Sony- Music and Video Unlimited

Microsft- Xbox Music Xbox Video.

They both have a reason to leverage their streaming offerings
