Didn't see this mentioned yet.

Anyone else read the new PSN Terms of Service (yes, I read them usually) that was updated this morning? There are some rather large revisions in there, mostly dealing with the Qriocity Video on Demand service.

The PS3 and PSP are now supported devices. You can even see them listed when you log into www.qriocity.com with your PSN ID.

One of the blurbs... rest of the new ToS here.

To access Sony Online Services, you must create an appropriate Sony Online Service account (either a PSN account or Qriocity account). Through Qriocitys Video on Demand service (VOD), you may purchase and view content using selected BRAVIA televisions or Sony Blu-ray Disc players (VOD Devices). Through PSN, you may purchase content and services offered on either PSN or Qriocity, such as new levels for your favorite games, comics, movies, television shows or original programs. You may view your content using SCEA-authorized devices, including a PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system, PSP (PlayStation Portable) systems, personal computers and VOD Devices. You will also be able to participate in SCEAs online community in PSN and PlayStation Home, (including chatting via voice and video with your friends) and play games online. Existing PSN accounts will not have to create a separate Qriocity account to enjoy the benefits of Qriocity. If youve created a Qriocity account, you may transition that account to a PSN account. Sony Online Services may not be available, or may not be supported, in some countries and some languages.

What is it with Sony not understanding phonics?

EDIT: WHOA-hoahoa this is interesting. It looks like you might be able to DEACTIVATE PS3s from this website?

jaypah · Apr 22, 2010

why couldn't they have just called it video on demand?

JaseC · Apr 22, 2010

"Qriocity". :lol

You can't pronounce "curiosity"?

jaypah said:

That's far too simple for Sony's tastes!

Edeuinu · Apr 22, 2010

Why so Qirious?

akachan ningen · Apr 22, 2010

my TV has qriocity built into it, along with netflix and some other baloney. I doubt I will ever use qriocity though.

Thank you Sony.

Just got the "The family of Qriocity services is not available in your country." in Ireland

I will never be using this thing then. ByeQirious

Shadow780 · Apr 22, 2010

I have 5 PS3s registered, WTH?

No_Style · Apr 22, 2010

In accordance to Stringer's will.

P.S - Don't bother signing on, fellow Canadians.

It's not "cryiosity".

HamPster PamPster · Apr 22, 2010

I don't see / understand the difference between this and PSN's video / comics / games store

Can someone explain?

JaseC · Apr 22, 2010

I have 3, which sounds about right. One is my own, and two belong to my friend who went through two PS3s.

The thing is, there are two PS3s registered on the same date. :lol There's no way of knowing which one is mine.

Edit: Oh, you still have to log in on the particular console you wish to deactivate. Fucking stupid.

Edit 2: My primary (AU) account doesn't work with the site, as expected.

Metalmurphy · Apr 22, 2010

"The family of Qriocity services is not available in your country"

Doesn't even let me login to see registered PS3s...

meh

Nice.

I tried it but its filtered at work due to sex. That's weird.

One thing that looked interesting in the video I saw of this program was something called a Media Library. I wonder if that can work with media stored locally to organize it and pull info Boxee style. If so, that would be fantastic.

Just one, LOOKS LIKE SOMEONE HAS SOME EXPLAINING TO DO.

dallow_bg · Apr 22, 2010

I have two PS3s registered on 12/22/2007?
How?!

I want to deactivate all of them! I was so careless back then with my account and my PS3 is now dead!

Crisco · Apr 22, 2010

Hmmmm, so it looks like Sony may be rolling all their PSN content into this one service, much like MS did with the Zune Marketplace. Great news if true.

dallow_bg · Apr 22, 2010

Sheesh, it will actually create a special PSP file for you to download and run to deactivate your PSP.

Do this for PS3 Sony.

JaseC · Apr 22, 2010

Being able to deactivate PS3s online as simple as the Qriocity website leads you to believe would save so much trouble, particularly if your PS3 dies.

Make it happen, Sony. You're so close!

Edit: It's also worth mentioning the website grabs the country info from the PSN account you log in with, not via IP.

Metalmurphy · Apr 22, 2010

That's odd. My US account has 3 PS3s. I never gave my US account to anyone >.<

2 have the same date and one is different. I've had 2 PS3s, so no idea where that extra PS3 came from.

badcrumble · Apr 22, 2010

W... weird...

I have only three PS3s activated. I thought it was four or five.

Keyser Soze · Apr 22, 2010

:lol @ Game Sharing people

Dead Prince · Apr 22, 2010

i have 2. thank god because i used it up before my ps3 broke. it took a lot of complaining to sony to get it back.

ULTROS! · Apr 22, 2010

One PS3 and One PSP.

Got that right.

John Harker · Apr 22, 2010

Give it a few more years, a "gaming" console will be the only box you'll have hooked up to your TV.

my tv has an apple tv and three gaming consoles hooked up.

something tells me none of the gaming consoles are going to run xbmc, so i don't think i'll be getting rid of the media center box

Baki · Apr 22, 2010

So...How is this different from the PSN video store?

Nightz · Apr 22, 2010

Read the name and imagined a city full of these.

Stinkles · Apr 22, 2010

Where can I satisfy my need to BUY QRIOUSITY?

gofreak · Apr 22, 2010

Baki said:

The video store is buy-to-own/download and download rentals, right?

This is on demand streaming.

Of course, I can't be sure because we don't have any video service at all here

user friendly · Apr 22, 2010

Awesome, something else Canadians get to miss out on.

electroshockwave · Apr 22, 2010

So if this is pronounced Cu-riosity what is Qore supposed to be, Cuore? Stop being Qunts Sony.

woodypop · Apr 22, 2010

What a dumb name.

Yeah, it's supposed to be "Curiosity," but I keep seeing Curio-city, Creo-city, Cryo-city and Queerio-city, probably due to an off-color joke I heard as a kid.

People seem to like me because I am polite and I am rarely late. I like to eat ice cream and I really enjoy a nice pair of slacks.

Definitely doesn't make things up as he goes along.
