That's not a bad idea except i think the general public would want to hold their new game in their hands and it's also nice to have the books sometimes too.

chapie_, now that you mention it... wouldn't it be cool to have a book-reader in the PSP? Like how some companies are doing it with sheet music and books, they are loading the text onto a screen.

While if it is true that Sony will go to ISO's their whole original idea of the UMD will go to waste, and the whole UMD drive will also be a waste. It will kinda be like a VCR coupled with a DVD player; No one wants to use a video tape when they can use a smaller DVD/CD. The PSP could be a lot smaller if we didn't have the UMD feature but if we had Games we bought online.
