AMP Adds Sony Content (And you can Watch Ghostbusters)

Posted on by

Heh. I always love when I find out stuff we’re doing by clicking on a Techmeme link. I must not have been paying attention, but it looks like we’re adding Sony content to Adobe Media Player. As Liz from NewTeeVee notes, it’s mostly old stuff like Jerry Maguire and Men in Black, but who doesn’t love the classics? And it’s a first (I think) that we’re getting full length movies in AMP, so that’s pretty cool.

It also sounds like we’re going to be adding some new CBS stuff and according to CNet we even get Ghostbusters. Kick ass!

    It is a great pity with AMP that the majority of the content is only available within the US! This will soon become the heel of the system. It is worrying that the cross-over between product promotion and content IP clash to the demise of the product world-wide!

    Yeah, I feel your pain. It’s not our thing, it’s a Sony and whomever is doing the content thing.

    But we don’t get access to you guys’ BBC iPlayer, so it’s happening on both sides of the pond unfortunately.

    Adobe: Okay, ready, give it to them. ( the content )

    Sony: Wait, there’s something very important I forgot to tell you.

    Adobe: What?

    Sony: Don’t let the content-streams cross national borders!

    Ryan Stewart: Why?

    Sony: It would be bad.

    Adobe: I’m fuzzy on the whole good/bad thing. What do you mean, “bad”?

    Sony: Try to imagine all media as you know it stopping instantaneously and every show in your library exploding at the speed of light.

    Adobe: Total videotonic reversal.

    Ryan: Right. That’s bad. Okay. All right. Important safety tip. Thanks, Sony.

    i think the AMP should support the external subtitle system. Because, everybody in the world who use the internet don’t know English. So that news isn’t important for too many people in the world.
