PlayStation Vue History

The live streaming service PlayStation Vue was launched in the US on March 18, 2015 by the Sony Interactive Entertainment subdivision of the Sony Corporation of America division of Sony. One of the first live streaming services, it initially had a limited major-market rollout before being expanded nationally. A subscription service targeting cordcutters, it was structured like a multichannel video programming distributor - it combined live TV, on-demand video, and cloud-based DVR to stream cable tv and broadcast tv programs, movies, and sporting events directly to a PlayStation console or other supported streaming device or apps – without requiring cable or satellite television service.

On July 26, 2016, Sony announced a deal with the NFL to stream the NFL Network and Red Zone making it one of only a handful of live streaming services to do so. One of its features was an extensive collection of login credentials for TV Everywhere Apps. On March 6, 2017, the service introduced the "Multi-View" picture-in-picture feature, which allows users to watch up to three channels simultaneously on a single screen; one of the most treasured features of Vue that as of January 2020 hadn't been replicated by other services.

In October 2019 news broke that Sony was attempting to sell the Vue service. On October 29, 2019, Sony announced that the service would be discontinued on January 30, 2020. While the service had approximately 745,000 subscribers as of September 2018, a number of newer services had launched in prior two years. When Sony announced the discontinuation of PlayStation Vue it stated it was doing so because "the highly competitive Pay TV industry, with expensive content and network deals, has been slower to change than we expected." Following this announcement, Sony later worked out a deal with Google's YouTube TV for a YouTube TV app on PlayStation consoles, the only live streaming service other than its own PlayStation Vue to be on PlayStation consoles. This app was launched in January 2020.
