Sony announced today that YouTube is the latest online video provider to join the company’s BRAVIA Internet Video Link service. The service went live today providing BRAVIA Internet Video Link users access to millions of videos on YouTube at no additional charge.

The BRAVIA Internet Video Link is a small module that attaches to the back of a selection of the company’s 2007 and 2008 BRAVIA LCD flat-panel television models.
The service seamlessly streams on-demand entertainment including movies, TV programs, your favorite YouTube videos and a variety of other free content as well as news, weather and traffic information via an existing Ethernet connection without the use of a personal computer.

A broadband connection of at least 2.5 Mbps is recommended. Content is easily navigated with Sony’s Technical Emmy award-winning Xross Media Bar (XMB) user interface.

Sony’s BRAVIA Internet Video Link module is currently available for about $300. The module is compatible with a majority of the latest 2007 BRAVIA television models, as well many new 2008 models.
