UMD movies were definitely a bust as they were too over priced to be played on one device and no video out on the PSP-1k also didn't help (so that the one device that played them could only output on a tiny screen).
UMDs for games weren't as a bust, I mean, DS cartridges are only used for DS cartridges and will become an obsolete format when the 3DS is released. Only issue I have with UMDs for games is the loading times and that damn grinding noise.
But yeah, if there was a legit way to do UMD -> mem stick rip, that would be awesome. Or if they had the PSN at PSP launch and forced all games to be UMD and PSN, then that'd work too.
Oh well. I'll sit and ponder this deal for another hour or two.
