Well that sucks a bit but in a way understandable seeing most TV's come with it now. Used my PS3 as a mediastation up until I moved and got a new tv with DLNA.

Can someone please explain what DNLA is exactly, and when you say using your system as a media station will no longer work with the PS4?
The only media I ever used on my ps3, besides games...was blu-ray movies, and putting various video files on a USB stick and then playing it through the game console. Are you guys saying this will no longer work on the ps4?

You pretty much stream content from your pc to your PS3/TV (Any DLNA device). No need for USB or External HD's 
Like Mezzmo for instance. Makes your pc a media server and then with the ps3 you search for media server and you can connect to the files you shared... Movies,Music,Photos.
And if you want to know more: http://www.dlna.org/

I always used PS3 Media Server when I didn't have a media computer directly connected to the TV. Should work just as well as DLNA on PS4 tho, right?
Yes, yes I'm back.
Somewhat.

Well if DLNA will be stripped from the PS4 then it won't work, the PS4 won't be able to connect to your media server. DLNA is the protocol so the device needs to support that. |

MP3 Support, DLNA and more features to follow on 2nd PS4 update
Though there have been a few missteps on Sony’s behalf from the recent FAQ post riddled with mistakes of no MP3 support, NoDLNA support, and a few other features that are not available at launch. We were able to speak to a Sony rep today about if any of these features could be implemented in the near future and much to our surprise we have received a “Yes“. The future update that is in process to be rolled out shortly after the PS4′s launch(November 15th) will include the following detailed features listed below:•Legacy headset support
•Mp3 support for not only in-game but non gaming as well.
•Suspend and resume play feature
All of these features are set to hit PS4′s consoles by late 2013- to early 2014. Which we hope Sony will deliver sooner upon. From what we know these features are being packed in the 2nd forth coming PS4 firmware update. Also these details were hinted today when Shuhei Yoshida made a post on twitter stating that he had a discussion with otherPlayStation 4 development team members about received feedback. With this news being provided Those these features are a definite step in the right direction. We were still unable to confirm future external hard drive support for media or game data would be supported later on. lastly we’re still waiting to hear if there will be future YouTube support for video sharing. What do you think of this good news do you think Sony still needs more features to claim the living room in this next gen console war? comment below let us know.
