CES 2008: Blu-ray titles to include PSP version of videoDela @ Jan 10, 2008 06:29 | 11 comments
The PlayStation 3 did not encode the video however, the copy for the PSP system is permanently stored on the Blu-ray title itself, with no expiration date and at apparently no extra cost. "There was always the promise of greater inactivity," said David Bishop, president of Sony Pictures Home Entertainment.
The new feature is not yet part of the company's release schedule, but Bishop said he expected to see Sony Pictures rolling it out this year. Not many details were given on whether the video content could be transfered to portable devices other than a PSP.
Support on the PSP is significant enough on its own however, as it seems Sony may be cleverly replacing its UMD format (at least for movies) with Blu-ray discs that instead contain a copy of the movie for the Memory Stick.

Comment by: sgriesch (Jan 10, 2008 18:18) Here's a bold idea, Sony. Make the Blue-Ray movies cheaper. That would sell more discs. I don't need any more proprietary crap from you. Betamax, Gigapocket, DRM restrictions.... |
