Sky player has been a massive success since hitting the Xbox 360, and now it seems Sony and Nintendo could also share the triumph.
Upon Sky Player being released there was no announcement of exclusivity, therefore this was always anticipated, although doubtful.
Sky's director of On-Demand, Griff Parry, has stated the company are 'in talks to explore opportunities' with other mainstream consoles, however remain focused on enriching Sky Player for Xbox 360.
Furthermore, Parry has stated the following comments.
"We are looking to extend distribution of Sky Player widely via partnerships with key players in key categories," said Parry, when asked about the potential for Sky Player on Wii and PS3.
"Games consoles is obviously one of those key categories, so what you would expect is probably true.
"We are engaged in talks to explore opportunities, but we are very happy in our relationship with Microsoft.
"We are absolutely not finished with Xbox and aim to make the experience richer and richer and continue innovating."
To conclude; the decision remains indecisive, although we have a sense of eager anticipation now this news has hit the internet.

first the iplayer now sky? should be good i suppose what they should add is the facebook feature where you can log in and chat like xbox have.
I agree, it would be handy under the TV section on the XMB. Technology is becoming so advanced that games consoles have integrated TV facilities on them, so why not stick Facebook on too!

Yeh it would make ps3 more approaching since both PS3 and XBOX are in competition all the time with new updates and new features.
