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.
