    There is a little window dressing since almost all the rentals only show the title and a blank selection screen… but it’s a start. Will we have to wait two more years to get the rentals and TV shows now?

    hmmmm i just checked it and hmmm theres like 20 movies to rent…. will we get some more in a reasonable delay or it will take a while? because yes its great that we got the service but if theres no reason to use it for, its not better

    Ok I found the video store section after selecting an add on the right of the PSN store. I can see all the available movies etc, but when I select a movie I want, it says “this content cannot be accessed on your account” is it just me who has this problem?

  • spideyal

    Yes! Finally, I’ve been waiting for this.

    20 movies??? In the New Release section maybe. But I see HUNDREDS of movies here.
    Great news – no more giving Rogers Cable my $ for overly compressed
    HD on-demand movie. This is cheaper and the rental lasts longer. Great news!

  • FJ1100_rider

    thanks Grace and Sony , been looking forward to this .

    a question though , is it still updating the canadian store or are a lot of these videos not available here ?
    I browsed for movies to own and the first 3 I wanted showed the title page but then when I clicked on them it said no content found – they are copycat , eddie murphy raw and ferris buellers day off

    after that I stopped looking because it seemed there weren’t any I could actually rent or buy .

    hope it’s just a glitch .

    Hahaha Charlies Angels? Really? Is this a subtle way of insulting us? No, i’m not mad or complaining, I just find this genuinely amusing. Bad movie was baaaad.

    But yay! Video store!

    Dear PlayStation,

    I’m a french canadian, yet I absolutely want to see films in their original version. Sadly, it seems like the films I want to see are dubbed and there is no way to change that. What should I do?

    Sincerly,
    VincentVendetta

    Thanks for finally bringing this to Canada, would also like the PSP comic store.

    My immediate impressions:

    Content is better than I expected, I thought half of it was gonna be Corner Gas and other Canadian crap like that. That’s how iTunes was for like a year.

    Rental prices are good, much better than I expected.

    More things need to be available in HD.

    Half the things I click on go to a blank “not found” or error screen.

    Now they just need to add more HD and more content (I wanted to rent Youth in Revolt but it’s not there) and I may actually rent some HD movies on this thing. Good start, 3.5 thumbs up!

    Great new feature for all Canadians! Has anyone bought a movie yet ? Do they support subtitles ? In french and english ?

  • NeoUltima

    Charlie’s Angels…BLARGH

    Free is free I guess.

    @97

    Only some movies are available for rent. You might want to check the buy section as Youth in Revolt might be there.

    Thank you so much. I already have 110 blu rays. Dont no what I will do with the video store. Maybe rent something before I buy it see if its worth the buy. Anyways thanks PS and also just waiting for that code in my email for the free movie I tried downloading it from the store there was no content. Guess redeem only xD
