UMD Sales Top 100K

GamesIndustry.biz has the news that Sony has sold more than 100,000 units of UMD movies to date. This does not include the Spider-Man 2 discs that were included with the PSP package in the U.S. From the article: "Sony's film canon is broadening all the time, the executive said, with releases aimed at demographics outside the traditional 18-25 year-old male gamer demographic expected soon - including releases targeted at women, and cartoons."

Women, I can see...but I don't think Sony will be selling too many releases to cartoons... ^_^

Alanis Morissette would be proud!

Why would she? She has no idea what the word ironic really means.

I had the same thought as the grandparent and didn't even notice it until I read your comment. I usually ignore commas when reading anything online since they are so often misused and haphazardly utilized.
