Sky signs deal to offer PSP downloadsSaturday, July 28 2007, 10:19 BST By David Gibbon, Gaming Reporter Sky has formed a joint venture with Sony to offer video-on-demand and films for the now blossoming Portable PlayStation handheld. Although the device has been lagging behind Nintendo’s DS in terms of sales, this latest announcement, coupled with the possibility of a PS2/PS3 control adaptor, is seen as a positive step for the device. Sony and Sky plan to offer both video-on-demand and movie downloads to PSP users in the UK and Ireland - with the aim of making the system the leading video download platform on the market. Sky has also begun talks with a number of leading content providers keen to offer downloads for Sony’s PSP. More announcements have been promised at the Leipzig Games Convention, which begins in Germany on August 22. |
I view this as another positive step forward for Sony. Sony really has to get ahead of Nintendo or its gaming business will be wiped out soon. Potential threats not only from Nintendo, you will never know what companies like Microsoft will come up with next. With iPOD and iPhone, one can never rule out Apple to be eyeing this market as well..
What’s the impact to consumers? Consumers will stand to benefit from the additional channels that they can choose to purchase their videos and movies…
