Do you run a brick-and-mortar store that primarily sells media? Yeah? Then lean in real close, we’ve got a little trend that you may have overlooked. The physical media you carry — be it films, music, or games — is going digital and moving on-line for direct-to-consumer downloads. Still, Dutch gaming-house Nedgame has a statement on its website saying it will not be selling the UMD-less PSP Go. It lists six reasons framed in a way that makes them sound like they’re fighting for the rights of the consumer. However, as a seller of gaming media that boasts two new store openings on its home page, the primary beef likely stems from the shop’s inability to sell physical media to the download-only PSP Go. Maybe a search on the tag Blockbuster could help with expansion planning?
