So-net starts PSP video download service

News of this had come along with the announcement of the v2.0 firmware for the PSP, but here comes confirmation that Sony's ISP, So-net, is tomorrow starting a video content download service targeted at the PSP. As so often with these things it's slightly disingenuous to say that this is exclusively a PSP service, since it operates by pulling the content down to a PC first and then transferring to the PSP (in a way that many of us are already doing). The plan seems to be to offer free content (movie trailers, dramas, etc.) until year-end and then start offering paid content such as new-release films. Apparently they've signed up 10 content providers including Sony Pictures Entertainment to supply this.

Next, a service that allows you to do this via WiFi?

[UPDATE: Seems from this Impress Watch article that the intent ultimately is to allow WiFi content downloads, just not from the get-go.]
