They know their audience at least. Sounds cool. But then my question is, is that cost for viewing each time?? Seems interesting either way. I'll have to check it out when I get my PS3.

I was amped when I saw this the first night of Sony's Press Conference. I looked around, noticed that anime was on the PSN and found Desert Punk up there. Considering I already have the box set I'm not going to buy them again but just knowing that it will be getting a wider audience is nice.
