Converting to MP4 all the time SUCKS. I find it funny PSP supports WMA files but not WMV files yet. Any ideas why?

There might be some some licensing that needs to be done in order to get wmv on the psp, and maybe it would cost sony a chunk of money and they can't be bothered.

What I would want is AVI and subtitle support.

Well it appears unsurprisingly that in order to use Microsoft's WMA and WMV technology, Sony must pay MS a royalty for every device that uses it. I believe this explains why the WMA capability had to be activated before it could be used - an attempt to keep the number of devices down, in order to avoid royatlies.

My guess is Sony is not interested in putting themselves in a position where they have to pay royalties for WMV as well.

like just cuz you are a sex crazed young adult dosent mean you need to bring that into the conversation. I think he was asking this question in all seriousness so if you arent going to put up an actual answer instead of a foul story about your obviously socially impaired and somewhat creepy lifestyle, Dont Say Anything.
