It was a failed miserable experiment. Thank Darwin. We are not ready to handle downloadable only tech.


Downloadable is huge and growing market. It's just this particular implementation that seems to have failed.


downloadable market is yes huge, but huge only in the >10 range.

I don't think people are ready yet to digitally download a game at $40 .  THese cheap ass $1 games have them scared that theyw ill pay $40 for a cheap ass short game

Yes, totally agree.
In addition to the high hardware entry price versus the psp 3000, it was doom to fail.
Digital distribution is only an option if the games are MORE CHEAPER than the physical copied games.
Sony should used the money saved on packaging and transfer to the customer but they were charging full price for these games that customers themselves have to go home and download 1gig games.  Taking in consideration that some markets actually have download caps from their isps, this will affect their decision in DD plaforms.
