by Steve Broback on November 16, 2005

Digit magazine has posted a comparison of the two most talked about non-pc methods for watching digital video in their article PSP versus iPod: What’s better for video? Here are some general conclusions:

PSP Advantages:
* Much larger screen with a cinematic aspect ratio
* More pixels at 480-x-272 pixels compared to 320-x-240 for the iPod
* Can buy Universal Media Discs that have movies on them and play on the PSP
* Lots of third party programs that help convert computer videos to the PSP
* Better battery life

IPod Advantages:
* Very bright, clear display
* More portable
* Has a hard drive, stores much more than the PSP Memory Stick
* Can play iTunes movies
* Can recharge using USB, PSP requires a wall outlet
* Can hook up to a TV and watch on the big screen
