Comments on: PLAYSTATION Store Video Content Update http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/09/playstation-store-video-content-update-9/ The official PlayStation blog for all of your PLAYSTATION 3, PlayStation 2 and PSP news. Tue, 24 Nov 2009 03:15:54 -0800 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.6 hourly 1 By: afrosheen http://blog.us.playstation.com/2008/09/playstation-store-video-content-update-9/comment-page-1/#comment-112062 afrosheen Wed, 01 Oct 2008 14:41:17 +0000 http://blog.us.playstation.com/?p=2188#comment-112062 I totally agree with #32. The DRM agreements Sony signed were way too restrictive to the point of being deal-killers for consumers. Apple has enough muscle to discourage DRM on the iTunes downloads. When will Sony have enough muscle to do the same for the PSN? When/if that day comes I might consider purchasing movies, because then I'll actually "own" the movie, not a license to watch it. BTW the movie and TV show prices are much too high. When my local DVD kiosk charges $1 per rental, and I can get it 100x faster, the PSN video store doesn't look very attractive. One last weird thing about PSN movie/tv downloads: lack of HD content on tons of shows that are already HD. I can't for the life of me figure out why Deadliest Catch and others that are regularly broadcast in HD aren't available in the same format from the store. I understand if you guys are having growing pains but between the glaring omissions, DRM and pricing structure I can't bring myself to spend a dime on it. I totally agree with #32.

I was "searching" for Hitman unrated and nothing showed up. I looked in the H's and no Hitman? Where did it go? If it's gone, then where do movies go when they die? PSstore bargain bin anyone?

Please look up the CRTC and Canadian Department of Heritage: http://www.pch.gc.ca/progs/ac-ca/progs/ri-bpi/index_e.cfm Even when/if Canada DOES get the video store the content WILL NOT be the same. @38…no, it actually would be odd if we DID get the same access.
