PlayStation Network - PlayStation 3 - Video download service - Image 1

PlayStation 3 gamers gave a collective woot! this week when Sony finally unveiled details on the upcoming video download service coming this Summer. Unfortunately, there may be a possibility that once the service launch, the selection of movies to download may be limited, if this piece of news turns out to be true.

According to some Hollywood insiders, it seems that a lot of studios still don't have deals in place to offer their movies on the download service. In fact, only Sony Pictures is believed to be the only studio that's confirmed to be on board. Not that that's a small thing - Sony's Entertainment Group has a lot of media titles under its belt.

Still, if these insiders are to be believed, it may take some time before we see the library expand. PSP gamers may also find themselves a little unsettled with this news as the video service will include PS3-to-PSP interactivity. At any rate, it won't be surprising if we hear more on this when E3 finally hits.

# Fox will follow suit — ValiX 2008-06-29 00:51

My two cents: Fox studios will follow suit after the launch of the service, they were on Blu-ray almost immediately so I wonder if the same will apply here. Warner will follow after a while (not immediately). Somehow I think Hollywood will be last to jump on board if at all
