Portable Game Console: Sony launches Portable TV network for PSP
MobileWhack - and a couple of others - alert us to this rather interesting news:
Sony has launched their new Portable TV rental service for owners of the Sony PSP in Japan. The goal? To make the PSP more than just about gaming, videos and music. Through the use of WiFi support within the PSP, users can now purchase and download video content from Sony’s Portable TV network and store them onto their Memory Sticks.
Users will be able to download TV shows, music videos, trailers, and other video programming from Sony’s website at a cost of $1 - $3 dollars each. The catch? This is a rental service and not an ownership service. The content will be usable for 1 - 2 weeks and then the videos can no longer be viewed.
Yet again, Apple has kicked a snowball down the hill, and with rumors about their plans for 2006 in media, the snowballs only getting bigger.
