Sony brings HBO to PS3

Today I woke up reading about this:

When I talked about this news in the office I was told that "why would Sony need to continue increasing the offering around the PS3, it seems unreasonable... they aren't managing to get a hold of the market".

However my analysis is different... I think the move isn't to get a hold of the Console market, at least not the main objective (as a secondary objective it of course is). In my opinion the move is against Google and all the news we've been hearing of Google TV.

The "Over The Top" war is starting. These are the first skirmishes.

And the loser will be... the traditional broadcasters and TV carriers.
