This allowed Sony to expand the Music Unlimited service into Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, The Netherlands and Belgium by the end of the 2011 year.

During 2012 the Sony Entertainment Network was released to the community and was available on Sony's different devices. Instead of using a web serviced browser in their Bravia Televisions, it was decided by Sony to integrate the Music and Video Unlimited into the TVs home menu. The interface was purposely created for the Sony Entertainment Network and make is more accessible for users to access the services that Sony Entertainment Network offered.

In 2015 the Sony Entertainment Network, along with its Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited services, were fully absorbed into the PlayStation Network, succeeding SEN as Sony's leading entertainment service brand. Following this, Music Unlimited and Video Unlimited were re-branded as PlayStation Music and PlayStation Video respectively.
