VIDEO ON DEMAND DEATHMATCH

Click on the image above for a larger view.

Now that there’s a new kid on the block, otherwise known as the Sony Playstation Network, I thought it was time for a little online video on demand throw-down. Here are some features which bubble to the top for me in analyzing the key players in the space (in priority order):

• Price
• Quality of Content (new releases vs. classic titles vs. niche titles)
• Quantity of Content
• Download vs. Rent
• Availability of HD titles in addition to SD
• Path to the TV
• Portability

I didn’t discuss quality of content or portability in the chart above.

Please feel free to debate me on any of these. I love a good deathmatch. Makes me want to go re-watch 300. . .

* Xbox Live Quantity of Content Includes Additional Titles From Netflix

** Amazon‘s New Video on Demand Product (Not Unbox)
