    I'm really interested to see if there is a "work around" that games will utilize or if they'll just be forced to scrap the whole feature altogether.
    I've never used it -_-

    The streaming is a bigger issue to me, since I'm assuming the PS4 can't play MKVs natively. Whatever, I'll just get one and keep it boxed up until custom firmware comes out for it. Don't care if I "can't" play online, I need my MKV playback.

      Yeah, I've used both my 360 and PS3 to stream videos I've downloaded....I don't really do that as much now, but sounds like you (and a lot of other people) do....

        To you perhaps. If you feel the PS3 is more "badass" enjoy! You just saved yourself so much money and disappointment. In my world streaming in game music really isn't a big deal. I could not care less. So I'm good.

                Statements like this annoy the hell out of me. I've only seen one person in this thread say they werent getting the ps4 because of the lack of mp3s and streaming. I actually made a post saying why I would still get a ps4 even though its missing a feature that I consider important. You are debating a point nobody made.

                Your first post and this one serve no real purpose other than to troll the people that consider those features important.

                  I don't expect Sony to do a system update adding these features by launch, but I would like for them to plan to change this in the future. I mentioned this to a friend just now and his reply was I guess I will stick with my PS3 then since he loves to load movies and music from his external harddrive.

                    It's a good thing I'm getting a video game console, if I was getting a smartphone I'd be HIGHLY upset right now.

                      Which one you leaning towards I would def do it if I only had to put a certain amount down but the fact it's either all or nothing sucks...

                        I guess its an important feature but its not a console breaking feature.

                        Its not something I hardly ever used if at all, so honestly I can understand why some would be upset but its not going to give me an ulcer by not being there.

                        I expect both of these companies to look to have a gain this gen finanically some kind of way

                          I rarely use it....(I do when I make historical rosters for The Show sometimes)...

                          But I just don't understand why neither console maker would understand that a lot of people would want to be able to play their MP3's on the console....as either a background or in-game feature.

                          Honestly...it makes little sense.

                            I agree it makes little sense but most decisions that do from corporations are usually money motivated.

                              LOL! Who called it "console breaking?" Its a silly and greedy omission by both companies. I never play online and personally find it useless but I wouldnt be ok or disregard people's anger if either company took away a feature that people who do play online love.

                              They wont gain financially from this. Most people including me arent going to pay to stream or play music when we can do it for free through other devices. If I wanted to stream music I would use the other apps like Spotify before I bought Music Unlimited or Xbox Music. Its a fools errand by these companies and thats the only thing that makes me feel ok. One or both of them will realize that no one is paying for this service, realize that there are people like the_future who will buy a system that can read mp3s or stream content and decide to add the feature back in by software.

                                I don't mind not being able to listen (without Music Unlimited) while playing, because I'm not sure how many PS3 games I even own that allow that.

                                I will miss not being able to cue up custom sounds for The Show, NBA 2K, and WWE. It's really disappointing.
