Sony has confirmed that the next software update for the PlayStation 3 will add support for interactive Blu-ray Live features.

The update is scheduled for release in late March and will enable PS3 owners to experience interactive features such as downloadable video content, ring-tones and games.

Software update v2.20 will enable photo and music playlists on PS3 to be copied to PlayStation Portable systems, among other new features.

"With Blu-ray established as the high-definition optical disc standard, more consumers are ready to jump in and take advantage of everything the format offers," said Scott A. Steinberg.

Blu-ray Live requires an internet connection and at least 1GB of local storage.
