Yes we almost was the absolute first to report on this news and if I may say so, excellent and brilliant news where Sony will add-in support for DivX in their PlayStation 3. This news is launched tomorrow in public by a press release but off course, as it sometimes happen, we are just a tidy bit faster to report it (yet not the first as someone leaked
). The release starts with stating over 1.000.000 DivX Certified products are out there and the new agreements with Sony will significantly expand that number. Now I wonder if the next step would be integrating DivX Connected into a new PS3 model as that might benefit PS3 as well, becoming a full media system instead of just a gaming and Blu-ray sytem. It would actually almost be perfect if they had HD DVD instead of Blu-ray (Jack not too fond of Blu-ray for its limitations in fair use, so it's good news that also Xbox might add DivX Video soon, be it then I'm not too fond of Microsoft fro it's DRM and force of extenders). Well, full press release about DivX inside PS3 inside this news bulletin!
