UMD Format Dying

Anyone else see this coming?

To be perfectly frank and honest, this is not the least bit of a surprise. UMD movies cost, as was pointed out, too much to profit off of at such low consumer interest. They aren't worth the buck it takes.

Hopefully, they'll have some games that are actually good to make up for this. I'd hate to see the PSP go down the drains so easily as losing only one dimension of itself.

I said it would happen b4 psp was even released. Everyone would argue the other way, maybe even point out spiderman 2 had sold millions, but in the grand scheme of things, UMD is a waste of time and effort, and no one wants to buy a format meant only for the PSP.
