With the recent PSN outage lasting more than a month, Sony are compensating all users with 2 free Playstation 3 games.
Also disrupted during the outage was the streaming facility from LOVEFiLM, Although the LOVEFiLM streaming is a free service they have graciously given all users that have used the streaming service in the month prior to the outage £5 compensation, that also includes users that are within the free trial.
Full email received from LOVEFiLM below.

Hello Ctrl-F5,
You probably know that Sony have relaunched the PlayStation®Network and that, in turn, our streaming service has resumed on the PS3™. It’s been a frustrating couple of weeks for all concerned, so thanks for hanging in there.
And because we always want to give you great value and a top quality service, you’ll be getting £5 off your next payment – no quibbles, no hassle; it’s our goodwill gesture to LOVEFiLM members who watched a film on the PS3™ in the month before the PSN went down.
This will happen automatically on your next billing date. Don’t worry if you’re still enjoying your free trial, we’ll knock it off your first payment.
We’ve still been adding new films every week, of course – Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl has sailed onto the streaming service recently, along with The Recruit and Pearl Harbo(u)r. So it’s high time to enjoy these titles and thousands more on a PC, internet-connected TV, and – once again – on your PS3™…
Happy viewing,
The LOVEFiLM team

What if you pay for your subscription up front? Do those users get a discount?

That isn’t something I know, if pre-pay users will get the discount added to their subscription.
I will find out and post back the answer here.

Hi A,
I have found out that all pre-pay accounts that used the service on PSN 30 days before the outage will receive the credit to their account.
Keep an eye out on the email.
