Default Question About PS3 Apps.

I am new to the PS3 thing so I have to ask this question. Why doesnt my PS3 have the same apps that are on the Sony Blu ray S570? Like Crackle, Slacker, myplay, Pandora and others? Do I have to download these apps manually to my PS3? I have Vudu, Netflix and Hulu Plus but thats it otherwise theres nothing else on the media bar (xcross media bar as Sony calls it.). Is this normal for the PS3? Maybe its because my PS3 is a 2009 version I dont know but any help would be appreciated.

Thanks guys.

Just go to pandora.com with the PS3's browser. It works just fine, I listen to it all the time.
