I understand Sony wanting to give the PSP its own special proprietary data format, I really do. But did they really expect me to buy movies on UMD? Limited storage meant that bonus footage had to largely be stripped from UMD releases, and exclusive PSP compatibility meant no one developed content for UMD anyway. Even Sony’s giving up on the technology, opting instead for flash memory in the PSPGo.
