Here’s some news that came out yesterday but with the million other things on my list to write about, I never actually got around to this one. Yesterday, LoveFilm announced the launch of their new service where you’ll be able to stream their movie rental service through your PlayStation3.

They open with the following info:

Very soon, LOVEFiLM subscribers on packages of £5.99 or above will be able to stream the UK’s largest choice of films directly to their TVs through their PS3™ . And the best bit? All this comes as part of your subscription. That’s right, great films to watch instantly on your PS3™ for no extra cost.

So, if you have a PS3 and the £5.99 service, this is rather great news! I do not have a PS3 which is not great news! Wonder if the service will come to Xbox 360. I guess we’ll have to wait and see. With the arrival of SkyPlayer on Xbox earlier this year, I think we’ll start to see a trend of streaming services coming to game consoles as it’s what Microsoft have been plugging for years. Having one device in your living room that streams live TV, music and movies.

LoveFilm have made this rather nice video which gives you move info on the service and head over to their website for the full run-down plus a button you can click to find out more when the service goes live (date as yet unannounced although ‘November’ is mentioned in the video ).
