Despite rumours to the contrary, it appears that Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) has been more than a little accommodating in its DRM-enforcement policy, allowing users to re-download purchased movies on a one-time basis provided the original has already been deleted.
“If a consumer deletes a purchased movie from their PS3, they will not be able to re-download the movie without assistance from SCEA’s consumer services,” stated PSN spokesperson Lincoln Davis.
“Consumer service can issue a re-download as a one-time courtesy, as provided by our guidelines, for the title to allow the consumer to go back and download the movie from their PSN download list.”
A little bit of a hassle to activate then, but a nice gesture nonetheless. We'd love to hear news of that European video store at some point though...
