How many, if any, UMD's for the PSP do you have?

Spiderman 2...
A total waste since It became a coaster after the first 2 weeks.

I'm guessing your talking about UMD movies.

Serenity.

May I ask why exactly your asking this?

I don't own any, but I wish I did (don't have a PSP, but I watched a movie on PSP, and I'd love to have one...)

Just the Spiderman 2 that came with it and Final Fantasy: Spirits Within. If I had more expandable cash and they were on sale, I might pick up Serenity, the Matrix, Cowboy Bebop 1st Session, and Advent Children for fun.

Why own when you can rent? http://www.gamefly.com PSP movies for rent, same deal as the games, 2 at a time for 19.95 a month, unlimited per month...

If I had a PSP, I'd totally ditch netflix

Heh, I saw that too. Yeah, I'd rent PSP movies, but my Gamefly Queue is full of X-box 360 games right now. :grin:

I don't really see the point of these. I mean yeah, they're mobile, but personally if I have time to watch something I'll watch it on a big screen.

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles... Besides being a movie I could never get into, they're where you'd watch a UMD but not a normal movie on a big screen. That, and school, in line at the store, maybe even on a trip overseas... Can't lug a 30 incher around another continent or island...

Go on a 10 hour flight or a 15 hour train ride and you'll see why UMD's are a good thing... Seriously... EDIT Also, most TVs don't have earphone jacks... A big plus right there...

I just got the incredibles on UMD for a birthday present from my friend. Not that great a movie, but I just wanted an opertunity to watch a movie anywhere. Plus, the headphones rock!

Who needs UMD's when you have a 1 Gb memory stick and a DVD ripper.

Let's see... One movie on Memory stick, or 10 movies on UMD... I'll take... 10 movies, thank's for playing.

This is sorta like what I've been hearing about direct download replacing DVDs (and HD-DVDs and Blu-ray) Even at the highest broadband currently available to consumers, this idea is beyond laughable... That, and how much it'd cost to STORE said movies...

Where did you get your DVD ripper? I want one! I could/would watch anything anywhere!
