Sony to Release PSP Movies On Memory Sticks

by Rainier on July 13, 2006 @ 9:16 a.m. PDT

Sony plans to make new 1GB and 2GB Memory Stick Duo Entertainment Packs available that will be bundled with an installer DVD, allowing you to install it on a PC, use an unlock code and transfer one of four Sony movies optimized for PSP playback from the DVD to the Memory Stick media.

While the Memory Stick Duo cards included in the Entertainment Pack can be used with any enabled device, such as Cybershot cameras, Handycam camcorders and Sony Ericsson mobile phones, a movie transferred from the bundled DVD is viewable exclusively on PSP system.

"The Memory Stick Entertainment Pack bundles fun with function," said Mike Kahn, senior manager for Memory Stick Media at Sony Electronics. "This collaboration with Sony Pictures provides a quick, simple way to get a full-length movie onto Memory Stick media at no extra charge."

"We had great success on the big screen with each of the movies offered in the Memory Stick Entertainment Pack," said Mike Arrieta, senior vice president, digital distribution and mobile entertainment, Sony Pictures Home Entertainment. "We expect consumers to have renewed enjoyment from these movies on the go as we make them available on Memory Stick media cards for the PSP system."

The 1GB (MSX-M1GSTEP) and 2GB (MEX-M2GSEP) Memory Stick Entertainment Packs will be available next month for about $60 and $100, respectively, online at sonystyle.com, across the country at Sony Style retail stores (www.sonystyle.com/retail), and at authorized dealers nationwide.
