PSP video downloads in Japan
Sony has launched the first phase of a new service which will provide Japanese consumers with downloadable video content for the PlayStation Portable – starting with free content, but moving on to paid-for TV episodes.
Called Portable TV, the service is being operated through Sony’s ISP company, So-net, and takes advantage of the inclusion of the high quality H.264 video playback functionality in the new PSP firmware which was released today.
Initially, around 100 free downloads will be available, including trailers and independent movies, but the company plans to introduce content ranging from TV episodes to movies and music videos in paid-for format shortly.
