"In the battle Playstation vs Xbox, Sony is looking for any advantage they can get, and they may have found another one. According to the Nikkei newspaper, two major movie studios have hopped on board the Playstation Network. Fox and Universal are going to be adding their movies to the list of movies availabe for rent/download on PSN.

While there are already some high profile movie studios signed on with PSN, these giants in the industry may be a telling sign that Playstation is outstripping other platforms in its available digital content.

So, will PS3 be king-of-the-hill of digital content, or will Xbox 360′s Microsoft's Zune Marketplace pull something out of its sleeve?"

Well, it has to be because Despicable Me is on there (Universal) as well as Night at the Museum (Fox) are on there, as well as many others from both :P

Yeah, I don't know why I thought otherwise, I think I was confusing it with news I heard awhile ago about netflicks. Plus it would be dumb if zunemarket place didn't have that, especially with their push in the mobile market. I did say i didn't know for sure though

True, and if these studios are already on XBL, I dont see the big deal here. I mean, good for Sony, but to act like it's Sony dominance?

Yeah, that's how I feel. Not buying or renting from Sony, MS, Apple, Amazon, or any other company when it comes to digital downloading or streaming.

Good for Sony I suppose. I prefer the hard copy of a movie though.

20th Century fox yes. infact right now there are SONY PICTURES movies On XBL. The latest sony pictures adition is resident evil afterlife. The A-team 20th century fox is one of the latest additions.
Update: and universal too, Despicable Me was the last Universal film released on the service.

Maybe he meant two, or just doesn't know what he's talking about... Anyways, I don't care much for buying movies from PSN or XBL. I don't think very many other people do either.
