The EU PS Blog’s got details of the first VDS update, although there’s no definitive list as to what’s actually new.

Looks as though Terminator Salvation is the biggie for the UK, and Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince is high on the list for France, Germany and Spain.

Hopefully we’ll get full details on future updates, innit. Hit the link.

SCEE’s just detailed a few deals for its now-released Euro movie store, as you can see here.

If you download Angels & Demons between November 19-30, you get a PSN voucher code for The Da Vinci Code, usually priced at £6.99, at no additional charge. Amazing.

Also, anyone who registers for a PSN account between those dates gets Transformers for free. And no, that doesn’t apply if you’re already registered.

Sony’s Video Delivery Service is now live.

SCEE’s put its Video Delivery Service live for both PS3 and PSP. We know because we just looked.

Get full details on what’s available here and see a video of it in action here.

It’s usable in France, Germany, Spain and the UK and will be updated with around 50 films per week.

Happy Bruno-watching.

SCEE’s just released a promo movie for its snappily-titled PlayStation Network Video Delivery Service, saying the imminent PS3 and PSP feature will “change the way you watch films forever”.

Get it after the break.

There’s footage there of the store’s layout, as well as a further pushing of the fact you can both buy and rent films on VDS, something that isn’t possible on the rent-only Live system.

Take a look. VDS finally releases in Europe today.

Sony’s launched a “Video Delivery Service campaign” on US TV, extolling the virtues of PS3 as a general media player.

“With nearly 1,000 full-length movies and 2700 TV episodes for download onto the PS3 or PSP, the Video Delivery Service brings you digital entertainment right into your living room,” said marketing manager Kim Nguyen, posting on the PS Blog.

“The TV spot uses humor to convey that the PS3 is not just a gaming machine but also a ‘movie downloading machine’ when a guy tries to win over his skeptical girlfriend.”

Watch it after the break.
