Topic: Any word on PS4 getting Youtube?

Not sure if I missed if they said that the PS4 would be getting Youtube or not.  I know the Xbox One will be getting it day one but I looked under all the apps on the PSN but didn't see a Youtube one.  The reason I ask is cause my son and I like to watch some channels on Youtube like AVGN.  Right now we use the Xbox 360 to watch Youtube on our TV but in order to watch it I have to have an active XBLA Gold membership.  Well since I have a PS4 and a membership to PSN I was thinking of not renewing the XBLA membership.  However if PS4 is not getting a Youtube app I will have to keep up with the XBLA membership.

So was there any word?

I haven't heard anything and I think it's stupid there is no app yet. Should be there day one!

Unless you plan on keep on gaming on your 360, instead of reniwing your XBLA subscription just get a chromecast and stream youtube videos from it. It will be cheaper and you won't require to pay 60$ every year for it.

I am sure it will eventually be there for the PS4 as well as being able to share video to YouTube. As for how long down the road that will be, I have no estimation. I do the same thing with my son. We watch =3 channel and some others together but fortunately we have PS3 and 360 so we are covered whether we watch on either one. Do you have an HDTV and a laptop with HDMI out. If you do, just hook up your laptop to the TV and watch together through it until they have an app. I play Borderlands 2 and Diablo 3 off of my laptop onto my TV all the time.

@PMasterTy9.....It wouldn't surprise me if MS didn't pay for some sort of exclusive window, although I see that as unlikey since YouTube is owned by Google. I also don't see why there wasn't a dedicated app on day one since Google owns Android which is Linux based and the OS on the PS4 is based on EASY BCD, a distro of Linux.

@Epic:  Yeah I plan on gaming on my Xbox 360 for awhile.  MS exclusive games mainly like Titanfall.

@DannyB:  Right now all my HDMI ports are being  used on my TV, Wii U, Xbox 360, PS4, Directv.  I dont like having to deal with unhooking one to hook up a laptop everytime I want to watch Youtube.  Borderlands 2 and Diablo III on PC why not just get the PS3 or 360 versions?

Once the PS4 is out in most places it's then you'll start hearing of new services like Youtube coming to the PS4.
