Here are some bunoses for all qualified customers. They will be able to rent an unannounced selection of movies over one weekend, can receive 30 free days of PlayStation Plus membership, and will have 100 free virtual items provided in PlayStation Home.

Background info: The PlayStation Network was shut down on April 20, after Sony discovered that it was the victim of a cyber attack that saw the personal data of 77 million of its customers stolen. Services were partially restored over the weekend for all countries excluding Japan, pending further information on its new security measures being delivered to the country's Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry.
