PSN to get cloud-based music service
It's called Qriocity. Yep.
Sony has announced plans to launch a cloud-based digital music service for PlayStation 3.
According to a post on the PS blog, "The service will give you access to millions of songs that are stored and synchronised through the cloud and can be accessed via PS3, BRAVIA TVs, Blu-ray Disc players, Blu-ray Home Theatre systems and VAIO computers, with one single account and without the need to manage digital files.
The service is called Qriocity.
Qriocity.
"We are excited to offer our customers high quality, cloud-based entertainment experiences across many of Sony's network-enabled devices," said bossman Kaz Hirai.
"Services 'powered by Qriocity' will revolutionise the way that users play, listen, watch, share, communicate, learn, discover and create their digital entertainment content."
Qriocity will launch later this year.

Hopefully it will offer music at a good bit rate and will have artist bios & links to similar artists like Spotify.

It'll be good if there is a nice big selection and you can make your own playlists, play whole albums etc.

Also, if you have a good setup then flac is what you want to be listening to and not compressed music.
Having said that, I use last.fm to find new music based on what i scrobble.

The music service is called "Music Unlimited".
The cloud back-end is called "Qriocity".
Two different things.
