Sony Network Entertainment International and Spotify Announce Global Strategic Partnership to Bring the Best in Music to PlayStation Network
San Mateo, Calif., and Tokyo, Japan, January 29, 2015 – Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. (SCE) and Sony Network Entertainment International LLC. (SNEI) announced that PlayStationTMNetwork (PSNSM) will be the premium entertainment service brand which
encompasses games, TV, video and music services. “Video Unlimited” and “Music Unlimited,” Sony’s digital video and music services currently offered on Sony Entertainment Network (SENTM), will become part of PlayStation Network, and rebranded as PlayStationTMVideo (PS Video) and PlayStationTMMusic (PS Music) respectively.
The companies’ network service offerings have been steadily expanding over the years, and monthly active users of PlayStation Network and SEN have exceeded 64.0 million as of December, 2014. While PlayStation Network has been synonymous with the best in gaming, it has also evolved to become a premier, comprehensive digital entertainment brand. By tying the network services under a single brand, SCE and SNEI will aim to further expand the network business by building upon the success of delivering the best all-round digital entertainment, and also extending the ultimate gaming and network entertainment experiences to an arena including movies, TV, and music.
“We are very excited to offer our wide array of network services including games, TV, videos and music, under the PlayStation brand,” said Andrew House, President and Group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc. and Group Executive in charge of the Network Entertainment Business. “We look forward to bringing even more compelling experiences, and an unparalleled breadth and quality of digital entertainment services and content to our customers.”
As a unified service platform, PlayStation Network will continue to deliver compelling entertainment experiences through PlayStation®Store (PS Store), gaming services such as PlayStation®Plus (PS Plus), PlayStationTMNow (PS Now), and entertainment services including PlayStationTMVue (PS Vue), a service that reinvents the television experience, PS Video and PS Music.
