Since I'm probably going to start doing a lot of travelling by train (unless/until they decide to do "airport-style (in)security" on trains. Gawd - then I'll be reduced to driving...) I've got a question for you all -
How difficult is it to rip, say, a DVD to MS or UMD for PSP, and does Sony load it down with DRM to kill performance? Do you have to buy movies as UMD, or can you get them out of your own collection (I don't want to watch Talledega Nights - I don't really care for Will Ferrell...)
I figure getting a PSP might help to kill boredom when I'm on the train and don't want to work for a little while, but I want to make sure of what I'd be letting myself in for. Most of the games that are out for PSP are those goofy "trendy" games that I don't care for (hey, I came up on coin-ops!) and I'd probably use it to mainly watch movies and give my laptop a break anyhow - or something to do if I'm giving my laptop a big job to process.
Fortunately, I now know where the power outlets are, and how to get to them...
Anyhow, just thought I'd ask to see if anyone here knew anything about what would be involved...
