The LA Times has reported that Sony is working on a new movie download service for the PlayStation 3.  The service will further Sony’s vision of creating their uber media machine, and allowing them to compete with the Xbox 360 on yet another front.

The new system will offer not only feature films but also full-length television programming available over the PlayStaiton Network.  No official date has been given, but word is that the PS3 will introduce some of these services this summer.
