I’m amazed that people don’t want a hard copy of their purchases. That’s just crazy to me. I love going to my media rack and looking over all my dvds,cds,blue ray and umds! Plus packaging is a huge deal to me. Downloads are dull IMO. I feel like I’m being ripped off. It’s like I’m only getting half the package!!! I guess it’s cuz I’ve grown up buying my media in formats I can look at and hold. Plus the security knowing what ever happens to my PSP (break, stolen, corruptionaccidental deleting of memory stick…) I have a copy in my rack for life! It would be cool however, to be able to upload (from the UMD a copy to the memory stick for convienance sake.

Great move.

But please also consider the digital approach, it’s always better to have multiple ways to get content.

And… I agree with many on getting Naruto on UMD, that would really help.

I disagree with those who say throw away UMD. I’m glad new UMD videos are being released for the PSP.

It takes time to transfer shows between the memory stick and computer. And it’s a management pain with the digital video. It’s much easier to just stick a UMD in and play. Also, UMD’s are great for a used or rental market.

I was also wondering about 300 on UMD, why is it in the UK but not State side?

……… TV series, lots of TV series on UMD. I would really like more Family Guy Seasons. 30 minute to 1 hour videos are great on PSP, these two hour features I don’t have much time for when I’m on the go.

Battlestar Galactica on UMD would be nice too.

Anyway thanks for trying, at least Sony is starting to recognize most of us don’t want to pay more than 15 dollars for a UMD.

Look on the bright side my US chums: in the UK, even when they’re in sales, UMD movies typically cost over $25. Their recommended retail price is usually over $40! With those prices it’s no wonder that they are hard to find in the shops – very few places are stocking the films any more.

Aeon Flux is a great choice, but this might be too late to convince the world to get into the format when everything else is sliding into digital-only media.

I hope you guys really did your homework and know what the demographic (us) really want. I am personally not a fan of what MTV has to offer so I hope for my sake you have other titles lined up.

We all know that if Bleach and Naruto hit the PSPs UMD format it would make sales jump a huge ammount even at these prices. So I like the new price tag! 15 for a full season of TV? rock on!

I’ll want digital distribution of music and video on my psp when the 8gb, 12gb, and other higher capacity memory sticks are at an affordable price. For now, I shall welcome UMD’s as long as they provide good content for a reasonable price. Full seasons on a UMD could be a selling point. Gimme Aqua Team Hunger Force compete for $15! Or how about more anime series and movies; Elfenlied mini series, Tenchi, Evangelion series, Appleseed, and others . And seriously, if there’s room on the UMD, add some extras.
