Re: Sony launches film channel for mobile phones

You would have thought they learnt their lesson with umd format for the PSP, which never took off.

Re: Sony launches film channel for mobile phones

Yeah, can't say I'd be up to watching a feature-length film on a phone, not even on my N95 which has a decent screen. TV programmes, on the other hand, would be great.
