If it's one thing Sony is doing right, it's offering constant features for the PS3. From Themes, wacky "Home" thing, and so on, they know how to keep the fanboys(and me) happy. Around the New year, the PS3 will offer DivX support. This is a great video format on the rise. I'm not sure what all of the supported video/music types are supported, but I'm sure it more than MP3, WMA, WMV, MP4(360).

Dude.. Divx died out years ago. The fact that Sony is trying to 'bring it back' is proof enough for me that they are grabbing at whatever loose cards they can to try and keep the ps3 in the public's collective mind.
SONY IS GOIN DOWN
divx never died out, people still use it. Just its not suited for most types of video as recently xvid gave better results and x264 gave much better results. Since x264 has been supported by ps3 since its launch everybody's been using that for encoding media. There are huge amounts of content on the internet in divx and being able to play them back without re-encoding to a different format is great. I know we just got divx support but we really need sony to bring out MKV containers instead of the sucky .mp4 container so we can have x264 and AC3 audio in one container. If they do put in MKV it should then support softsubs too for the mkv containers as a minimum of what i want but hopefully they'll allow multiple audio channels too.
