Since the launch of PlayStation Vue in March, we’ve heard a lot of requests from fans to bring our innovative cloud-based TV service to their cities. Today, I’m pleased to announce that we’re expanding into the Greater Los Angeles and San Francisco Bay Area TV markets. PS4 and PS3 users in these markets can now access the best in live TV, including local broadcast and regional sports, along with massive DVR storage in the cloud — all through PlayStation Vue’s powerful user interface. If you have an active PlayStation Vue subscription, you can also access PlayStation Vue content through our recently released iPad app.

PlayStation Vue will continue to evolve with the addition of more cities and more great content. Starting in July, we will be launching a selection of channels that can be subscribed to individually through PlayStation Vue and will be available to all PlayStation fans in the U.S. This means, you’ll be able to subscribe directly to the following networks, with or without another PlayStation Vue package.

• SHOWTIME: SHOWTIME will be available through PlayStation Vue in July for $10.99. If you’re a PlayStation Plus member, the monthly price is $8.99.
• FOX Soccer Plus: Starting in August, Fox Soccer Plus will be available for $14.99. If you’re a PlayStation Plus member, the monthly price is $12.99.
• Machinima: Machinima will be debuting their first premium TV channel on PlayStation Vue with exclusive content from Machinima‘s in house studio. The Machinima channel will be available later this summer through PlayStation Vue’s Elite package. The channel will also be available separately for $3.99 per month. For PlayStation Plus members, the monthly price is $1.99.

We’ll have more to report on PlayStation Vue in the near future. If you’d like to learn more, please visit www.psvue.com.

I can't wait to see prices for building your own package. I'm really excited for this to come to ohio

Week old news, but still great news. I will be subscribing to Showtime when it goes nationwide next month, and Fox Soccer Plus and Machinima will get my donation when they launch as well. Can't wait for this to hit the Puget Sound area with full service offerings.

This is the biggest killer app on any console ever. So many non gamers have mentioned they are ready to drop their cable or sat for this. I hear a lot of, "Well, I/We are not really into games, but it would be nice to have when Family/Grandkids come over". I think this along with morpheus is going to make PS4 the most casual console of all time. The best part about it is, with Vue, Sony has consumers that are paying them every month, and it should be a massive success at retaining that market.

How do the prices compare to packaged traditional set to box charges? And do you get any free channels with it?

Reason why I ask is in the UK, I'm paying £65 and with that a get a landline, 160mb fibre optic Internet connection, and over 100 channels including HD channels, comedy central, lifestyle channels, alibi, a few film channels, music channels and a 500gb TV box that has smart functions.

This sounds like a few channels quickly could cost up to £30-40 and that's all you would get.

Anyone here have this service that can share a few more details?
