Sony’s Entertainment Network has expanded with Netflix access, the companies announced today.
Starting today, those who own any of Sony’s 2012 Bravia Blu-ray or
Blu-ray home theater products that come with Sony Entertainment Network
support will find Netflix’s app available. Upon logging in to the
service, users will be able to stream any of Netflix’s television shows
or films.
Sony’s Entertainment Network allows users on a host of the company’s
products to access multimedia. The offering, which is available on
Bravia televisions, the
PlayStation 3,
and others, already includes support for YouTube and BBC News. Sony
also bundles its Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited services with the
platform.
Netflix’s expansion to the Entertainment Network comes just a day
after the company offered up a rosy picture of the first quarter, adding 1.7 million new subscribers. Netflix CEO Reed Hastings told analysts that his company is “performing exactly as we had hoped.”
