I guess the real question is, will PS5 support DLNA/UPnP one day? I hope so.
History has shown that Sony don't include support for it at launch, so it might take them a while to implement it.

Another angle is we can try to get the web interface working on PS5, but we will need testers for that. If you are interested, then please let us know what currently happens when you browse to the web interface on the PS5

I'm not 100% sure but I don't think the PS5 has a user accessible web browser due to exploits in webkit that have been used to hack the PS3 and PS4.

I think they will come up with a separate online service specifically for this.In any case, there is no news...
