One of the more interesting services to be announced for the PSP has just gone live in the UK & Ireland, allowing owners to access a new video-on-demand service with Sky, beginning with a 1-month free trial.

Users will be able to access content from Disney-ABC-ESPN Television, BBC Worldwide, Sony Pictures Television International, NBC Universal International Television Distribution, National Geographic and Sky Sports. The service is PC-based and uses the Kontiki peer-to-peer software for downloading programmes which can then be transferred to your PSP. What, no Wi-Fi access to download directly to the PSP?

It will come served up in three subscription packs: Comedy, Sport and Entertainment and no, it will not be free after that 1 month trial. The packs cost £5 per month for 1, £8 for 2 and £10 for all 3. There's also something called Rental TV which allows you to skip the monthly fee and just download the programmes you want. TV episodes cost from £1.50 per episode and movies from £2.50 each.
