The sudden revival of PlayStation Vue

Sony has also taken steps to improve PlayStation Vue’s video quality and reliability. For more than a year, Sony has been working with Conviva, a firm that measures streaming quality and identifies trouble spots. According to the firm, PlayStation Vue now has a 0.36 percent rebuffer rate, which refers to how often a stream must stop and load more video. That’s much better than the industry median of 1.12 percent, and it even puts Vue above the 95th percentile of services that Conviva measures.
