Hell yeah! But, I doubt it will ever happen. CTRC has created stupid laws when it comes to Digital Video Services. This is why we will never get the PlayStation®Network Video Store in Canada or Netflix, until these laws in our country are gone.

xcube  |  March 17th, 2010 at 1:39 pm

Well, I don’t think is just because of CTRC laws. Xbox live already have Movies and TV series available for download. When Sony announced it was going to be available in Europe I thought they would include us. Hasn’t happen yet!

CRTC dosent really care about this particular issue. They have stated over and over, they will not deny something like this. It has nothing to do with them so please get your facts straight. It is all licensing, etc and Sony being lazy.

Mindplague  |  March 17th, 2010 at 1:53 pm

Sony doesn’t care about Canada, unfortunately. Its showing, Sony. Hopefully you are listening. If not, I am (as much as I hate to by a another console) might have to look at the competition. Really unfortunate.

i think we will see it at some point…hopefully before the end of this year…it is not the CRTC i have an e-mail from them saying the have no control over what is distributed on the internet. the issue is Sony not having the rights to distribute the content to us Canadians in this digital format.

Its coming this fall.

CheesePie13  |  March 17th, 2010 at 2:54 pm

“Its coming this fall”

Said by the “AMERICAN”Ninja1

I really hope it does come, also be nice to have netflix in Canada too!

Will people ever stop blaming the CRTC, even when it’s not their fault?

The zip.ca company (which is the Canadian equivalent of Netflix) has tried to bring online streaming. Here’s an extract from their faq :

“At this time, Zip.ca has the technical ability to provide this service, however content owners have been reluctant to provide the necessary distribution rights for this type of distribution in Canada. As soon as conditions allow, we are set to fulfill.”

So, you see, not CRTC’s fault!

DO IT

Jeigh  |  March 17th, 2010 at 5:13 pm

Rosenort  |  March 17th, 2010 at 5:25 pm

please, please, please, please, please….

….please

jedi_webslinger  |  March 17th, 2010 at 7:49 pm

please sony… i want this service…

EVanHelsing  |  March 17th, 2010 at 8:52 pm

The problem that content owners don’t seem to understand is… People want to download their content. If you don’t offer a legal way to download video, people will download it illegally!

Canada is a hotbed for piracy. I know 40-year-old women who use bittorrent! The longer Canadians don’t have a choice, the more Canadians turn to piracy, and the harder it will be to get them to pay for legal downloads once they are offered.

NewBornThreat  |  March 17th, 2010 at 9:46 pm

hopefully it is actually coming

Josh411  |  March 17th, 2010 at 10:21 pm

PLease! this would be AMAZING!

John_Oval  |  March 17th, 2010 at 11:01 pm

Yeah the CRTC argument is useless, since Xbox Live members and especially itunes users can rent and own movies on their respective mediums.

It is only a lazyness factor, Canada is one of the only major country that lacks this feature now, and that needs to be changed

NotoriousGamer  |  March 18th, 2010 at 12:53 am

Canada is never getting it. Its been asked for a trillion times before.

Tridon  |  March 18th, 2010 at 4:31 am

If there’s no plans to ever give Canada the full PSN experience that its neighbouring countries receive, can we at least have all the PS Store icons removed from under video and everywhere else then?

NL_Buddha  |  March 18th, 2010 at 6:47 am

My only question is why has iTunes been allowed to do this?? If so then there has to be something for Sony to do to make this happen. Just a thought. Maybe a big E3 announcement??!!

SGAShepp  |  March 18th, 2010 at 6:53 am

Anyone smell a surprise for this years E3??

MEGA11BEN  |  March 18th, 2010 at 12:46 pm

YA!!!

fsavoie  |  March 18th, 2010 at 2:35 pm

Why somes are voting this down?

nomi_sns  |  March 18th, 2010 at 9:16 pm

Oh come on sony don’t be lame

Psikorps  |  March 25th, 2010 at 6:28 pm

I hope to see it added soon.
Only the americans who complain about canadians asking for this in the video/psn store updates would vote no.

Ma1nframe  |  March 26th, 2010 at 12:14 pm

Sony must HATE money if they have not brought the PSN video store to CANADA YET…SHEESH

CMON SONY

unbelievable1  |  April 14th, 2010 at 7:07 am

Sony has been “working” on this for years… keep waiting… it might actually happen

CapinChronic  |  April 21st, 2010 at 12:53 am

We need this feature bad!!

blingbling1988  |  May 27th, 2010 at 2:40 pm

I could care less cuz I don’t watch movies much anyway. I have like 20 blu-ray movies that my gf bought and only watched like 5.
But maybe sony could get me to start!

Rippou  |  June 5th, 2010 at 2:28 am

Who would vote this down? What is wrong with you?

MEGA11BEN  |  June 19th, 2010 at 1:45 pm

This is now a reality on July 1st!!

NelsonXVCT  |  July 1st, 2010 at 9:58 am

TRIX_BOL  |  November 23rd, 2010 at 4:13 pm
