The latest system software update for PlayStation®3 adds Blu-ray Disc™ (BD) Profile 2.0 (known as BD-LIVE) to the system's functionality. With the ability to take full advantage of interactive features, such as downloadable video content, ringtones, games, and more, BD-LIVE promises to offer PlayStation®3 users the ultimate interactive film experience.
