Sony’s PlayStation Vue service finds a home on Amazon Fire TV

From TechHive: You don’t need a PlayStation to use Sony’s PlayStation Vue TV service anymore, thanks to new compatibility with Amazon’s Fire TV and Fire TV Stick.

Amazon’s set-top devices are only the second non-PlayStation devices to support Vue. Sony added support for iPad and iPhone in June, and plans to offer support for Google’s Chromecast in the coming months.

Sony also dropped the price of its Core and Elite packages by $5, with the Core service (60 channels) now priced at $55 and the Elite service (85 channels) at $65. These new prices are available to both new subscribers and old, who will see the price drop in their next bill.

New customers will want to sign up quick: those who sign up for either of the above plans between November 15 and December 15 are eligible to receive a free Amazon Fire TV Stick, the company says. The baseline Access service (50 channels) will remain at $50 per month, but new subscribers at that level don't qualify for the free hardware.
