BBC Sports App for PS3 and Sony TV's
Sony have today confirmed their Playstation 3 console, and connected Bravia TV's will be getting the dedicated BBC Sports App. This app will work along side the existing iPlayer and BBC News apps and should be available in time for Wimbledon later this year.
Not only covering Wimbledon, the app will enhance the coverage of the 2012 Olympics, apparently bringing us up to 2500 hours of coverage via 24 HD streams. Thats a LOT of viewing!

'Now TV' - Sky PAYG Service
Sky is to launch a new Pay as You Go TV Service, Now TV, this service will be subscription free and allow the user to pay only for the content they want to watch.
Now TV will launch on a wide range of devices, presumably all those supported by Sky currently and maybe others as well. To start, you will be able to view shows and movies, but sports and other entertainment will follow. This allows Sky to provide a service to compete against Lovefilm and Netflix, but also offer content the others cannot like Sports.
The service is due to launch later this year for anyone who wants it (a Sky broadband connection won't be required), with more details on pricing to follow as well.

iPlayer completes the lot!
This morning brings the launch of the BBC's iPlayer service on Microsoft's console, the Xbox 360. With this launch the BBC now provide their online streaming / catch up TV service across all of the current generation platforms.
The Xbox version of the service comes Kinect gesture and voice ready, so you can use your body to control your TV. Making the service free to all users has been the issue that has previously prevented the BBC's service appearing on Microsoft's console, this issue has now been resolved.
Games consoles are becoming crucial media devices now, with all of them having different streaming services.

Netflix Streaming - Coming to the UK Soon
Netflix has announced it plans to roll out its streaming service to Europe as early as next year. They have said they will offer unlimited TV show and streaming films over the internet to compatible TV's and computers for a single low monthly subscription.
There is no announcement about the pricing structure yet, however it is looking like it will be streaming only, no DVD service like in the states.
Could this be some serious competition for Lovefilm and similar? More information will be released closer to the start of the service.
