British satellite television giant, BSkyB (British Sky Broadcasting), has reached a deal with Sony Computer Entertainment Europe, to give Sony PSP users access to a wide selection of Sky’s Video-On-Demand content.

BSkyB Chief Executive, James Murdoch, said that together, the companies are “ideally placed to make portable, on-demand TV a reality.”

“The quality of the PSP screen and its substantial reach among two million users makes it a natural extension to our multi-platform strategy,” Murdoch continued.

The new PSP video service will be demonstrated for the first time on August 22, at the SCEE Games Convention in Leipzig, Germany.
