Hello all... I am just curious....

Why isn't the PS3 multi-tasking friendly?


I am 14 years old and love to multi-task. When I go on the internet with my PS3 (it may be slow, but i am a lazy teen ;)), i would like to listen to some music instead of that dead silence. WTF sony? I can't listen to music on CD or my HDD while I surf the net or CHANGE MY SETTINGS??? For a next-gen console, it seems like a step backwards. I was also hoping for some type of user file interaction with the games such as music in-game instead of the boring game soundtracks (*R:FOM and Motorstorm are good sountracks and are not included). The original XBOX did this (not to compare) and I thought sony would have picked up on this by now. What the hell sony?

And fix your stupid browser sony.......


Does anyone else mind this? I know it is minor, but that does not mean it should be overlooked. Sorry about this....

Well first of all I agree with you, BUT if you want to complain go to Sony on AD. Another thing does the 360 do that for you in games, no so this the new gen and hope that it'll be fixed or something will be done by sony.if not hey aleast your lucky to have one right now.

well instead of coming on here and complaining, you could of searched the web or something for your answer.. I think your find you can surf the web while listening to music.. All you have to do is play the music you want from your HDD and then press the playstation button so you go back to the XMB and then click on the internet and voila, your on the internet while listening to music.. Not very hard was it, :p!

Does that work for downloading demos while playing games? i.e start download, push the playstation button to return to the xmb and then play a game.

um...

you can play music and videos in the background while surfing the net. The PS button is the multitask button so to speak.

And music during gameplay is coming in the big march update.

Maybe instead of posting these useless threads, you can god-forbid-it! experiment with your PS3.
