As you may know that there is a restriction to these apps, You would need to login into PlayStation Network to gain access. According to Hax this has have actually changed.
Thanks to trictlyfocused and bitsbubba the restriction has been lifted. For example, you would not need to login to PlayStation Network to access the following apps, Netflix, YouTube, Amazon Instant Video, Crunchroll, Crackle, Snagfilms, hulu+ and IGN.

Just so its documented, here are the steps I’ve been using to patch these:
1. Download and extract npdtoolv4d (npdtool – edat/sdat tool (w/ compression supported))
2. copy the original spark.cfg.sdat from your PS3 to the same directory as npdtool.exe (usa version spark.cfg.sdat is under /dev_hdd0/game/NPUP10021/USRDIR/data/config)
3. Open a command prompt and navigate to the npdtool.exe directory
4. Run this command (keep cmd prompt open after) - npdtool ds spark.cfg.sdat spark.cfg
5. Open spark.cfg in notepad++ or whatever editor you like
6. Change “requirePSN” from “true” to “false” and save your change
7. Delete the original spark.cfg.sdat file
8. In the command prompt you left open, run this command - npdtool 4s spark.cfg spark.cfg.sdat 8000
9. Copy the newly created spark.cfg.sdat back to your PS3 where you got the original and now you can use Amazon Instant with no PSN login requirement
I figured out how to remove the PSN login requirement for Netflix. Here is the patched app.sprx for the lazy.
Code:
https://mega.co.nz/#!EpInxQRK!Y1OQsZ2Ywd8BELJByO955RciEH0fzU3rBFyqlvtKhNA
So its documented, here are the steps I used to patch out the login requirement for USA v2.19 Netflix
- Grab app.sprx from /dev_hdd0/game/NPUP00030/USRDIR/
- Download TrueAncestor SELF Resigner v1.91 and extract it
- Copy app.sprx into the “self” folder where ever you extracted TrueAncestor to
- Launch TrueAncestor and choose option 4 “Decrypt SELF/SPRX Only”
- Choose your app.sprx (should be #1)
- Copy/paste into notepad the values of “ContentID” and “Klicensee” it shows
- – eg. UT0007-NPUP00030_00-NETFLIXRIGEL01NA
- – eg. 7AC7E325735C754B8C7F7984819B0A48
- Close TrueAncestor
- Open the app.prx that was just created in a hex editor (I used HxD
- Ctrl-F and text-string search for “PSNLoginRequired=true”
- Move your cursor to the beginning of the word “true” and type “false”. It will insert the characters as you type.DO NOT delete the word “true”, let it overwrite it.
- Save your changes and close the hex editor
- Go back to the “self” folder and delete/rename your original app.sprx
- Launch TrueAncestor again and pick option 8 “Custom Sign to NPDRM SELF/SPRX”
- Choose your edited app.prx (should be #1)
- Paste in the values of the ContentID and Klicensee that we saved earlier
- Copy the new app.sprx that gets generated over to your PS3
- Enjoy PSN-less Netflix
