PS3 DVR to allow MPEG2 Recordings to be copied to any Storage Medium!


Sony is really starting to get more and more things right. First they support DLNA and now they support the ability to move MPEG2 recordings from the PS3 to any Storage Medium such as the Promise NS4300N NAS Box, 1TB Hard Drive or other backup solutions. Unfortunately PlayTV will only be sold in Europe to start but should arrive in the US soon. Microsoft promised IPTV then let the world down with constant delays and what not. Can Sony get away with this? Yes, says producer Mark Bunting:

We've talked to our legal department about it. All we're doing is moving it out of PlayTV and to the cross-media bar as if it was any other recording. So hopefully users won't do stuff they shouldn't do with it...If I'm prohibited from getting the recording off and storing it somewhere else because some other dude is making money out of selling it, then I'd rather they brought the law in to catch those people.
