History

Sony Entertainment Network was first introduced on August 31, 2011 by Kaz Hirai, the president of Sony Computer Entertainment Inc., at the IFA tradeshow in Berlin, Germany. Sony decided to create the Sony Entertainment Network platform as a way for the community to access digital entertainment. The platform was operated by Sony Network Entertainment International, a subsidiary of Sony Corporation America. With the new name, also came new logos for the different services on the Sony Entertainment Network. Qriocity services were used by Sony as the video and music downloading platform; it was renamed Video Unlimited and Music Unlimited in 2011. This allowed Sony to expand the Music Unlimited service into Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Belgium by the end of 2011.
