I wished Apple had done something similar. We'll see how Sony's store performs.

There is still some time for Apple to be number 1.

With iPod cinema, later this year ? Same size as the regular iPod photo, with twice the screen in wide format... ? ? ?

Looks like Sony ain't the only ones. MS has jumped on the bandwagon too. http://www.searchenginejournal.com/index.php?p=1504

If Sony is doing this thing for movies, I think they've already messed up. There's a lot of video content that I would love to download (and watch on a PVP), but not movies. If I want a movie, I'll buy/rent it on DVD.

Why would anyone in all seriousness want to watch a feature film on a 2-4inch screen? I don't get it. Besides, wouldn't it eat up memory?
