Buying movies on PSN

#1 Posted by Kidavenger (2352 posts) - 1 year, 9 months ago

There is a deal on PSN right now: all 4 X-men movies for $24.99.

It's a good deal and I'm probably going to buy, but I'd like to know more about what I'm getting. What format are the movies in, are they transferable or are you just stuck watching on your favorite Sony product?

I think your stuck enjoying those fine films on Sony products... The only experience I've had with the video store is I bought the entire Evangelion series. It works and looks fine I guess. Also I think if you read the fine print you can only download movies and tv shows once so if for some reason you delete them or your PS3 breaks your shit of luck.

According to this you only get one download and you can only view the content on the PS3...I'm not a fan. I'll stick with Netflix and the occasional Amazon Video or bluray purchase.

Yeah, I stick to iTunes myself. You can just watch them on sony product, which is great if you already are using PS3 for your central media hub.
