Gaikai is a game focused streaming service and Sony acquired them for their gaming capabilities first and foremost. However, President and Group CEO of Sony Computer Entertainment Andrew House notes that using the streaming service for other services is “absolutely within the frame.”
“It’s recognition on Sony’s part that the cloud and cloud streaming technologies are going to have profound and possibly a very positive impact on not only our game business, but also in the way our consumers interact with and obtain content in general,” said House.
