No more UMD for the PSPgo!

I will down do a response to the Kotaku article about, which you can read here
The PSPGo, the newest version of the PSP by Sony, is relying on only digital media. Unlike the old PSP, it will not us the UMD disk format for games, everything will be download-able through an online store. Originally, Sony planned on introducing a UMD conversion program so that people who owned games originally on UMD could convert them to play on their PSPGo. No Sony says that they will no longer be doing that, so if you want to Play your old games on the PSPGo, you will have to re-buy the game. That's bad news for anyone who was looking at getting the new Go to replace their old PSP.

In my opinion, this just adds another nail in the coffin for the PSPGo. It's more expensive that the regular version, and I just don't think maybe people will see the added benefit of buy the go over the regular PSP, so they will choose to save their money and go for the regular version.
