No Custom Music is NHL 15 (PS4)

[hockeyyt988]

Hey guys,

Something I just read. Recently Sony announced in their "Playstation 4 FAQ" article that the PS4 WOULDN't be able to play .MP3 files or Audio CD's. Here is a tidbit of the information:

Two questions in particular headline the above facts, two questions that are difficult to misinterpret:

"Will I be able to play MP3s on PS4? No.

Can I listen to audio CDs using PS4? No, PS4 does not support audio CDs.

Then a third covers exactly how the illustrious background music feature can actually be used:

Will I be able to play background music while I play PS4 games? Yes, the Music Unlimited streaming service will allow you to listen to music while you play PS4 games. A subscription to Music Unlimited is required."

Based of this information, that would mean custom music would no longer be available because .MP3 wouldn't be uploaded? I know NBA 2k14 next-gen will not include custom music and this IMO is the reason why. If this is the case, I may think about buying an Xbox1 for NHL 15.

Thoughts? Comments? Concerns?

As far as I know, none of the next gen consoles supports MP3.

I think the no DLNA is an even bigger issue on the PS4, because of that I will not be buying one anytime soon.

I really appreciate guys here in OS who upload the musics/intro/goal. But if we cannot upload any songs to NHL 15, IMO, its just a small problem. The MAIN ISSUE for my in NHL 15 is gameplay, graphic presentations and everything that EA ignored in the past 4 years.

Wow.

I definitely hope this isn't the case. I don't even understand why .MP3 files wouldn't be supported.

Me either. There seems to be some speculation to whether or not Xbox One will be able to play .MP3. If it can, as funny as it sounds, I may get the Xbox One solely for that reason but to Dpyro's point, some reports seem to say that it won't either.

I always use your sound pack Cycloniac, and if this isn't an option, it's going to be extremely disappointing.

Hopefully I won't have to discontinue releasing them because of this.
