I know I’m probably the only one on this forum that even cares about this in its practical applications, but others of you might find this interesting because of the DRM implications.

So the PS3 video store launched, and I decided to check it out. The PSP portability options really intrigued me, especially if the videos would work with remote play.

Alas, the videos are invisible to remote play. I haven’t tried it with a movie, but I purchased a couple of episodes of tv shows and tried to watch them via remote play. It is really strange how it is implemented – the folder that the video is in shows that it has the proper number of items in it, but when you navigate into the folder, the video store video doesn’t show up at all.

This suggests to me that Sony had to specifically implement this non-feature so that the video could not be accessed via remote play, and I cannot fathom why.

If I can copy the video to the PSP by connecting the PSP (which I can), then why not allow me to watch the same video via remote play? If I have the right to do the first, why not the second? It seems like remote play would be less likely to lead to piracy than the copy feature?
