STUFF EXCLUSIVE – Universal and Sony unveil PoP entertainment vending machine

UPDATE – See our hands-on video of the Universal PoP here

It’s all going down at Stuff Live. As well as Cowon, Asus, TomTom and Archos whisking the wraps off their latest creations, we also snagged an exclusive on a vending sensation that will soon be sweeping the nation.

The PoP “entertainment vending machine” is a brand new venture between Universal Pictures and Sony entertainment to allow punters to grab their favourite DVDs, Blu-ray discs, PS3 games and downloads 24/7.

So you’ll be able to sate any midnight movie cravings or post-pub PS3 needs, and the touchscreen vendo will also let you browse trailers before you buy.

What’s more, you’ll also be able to instantly feed your multimedia whims by downloading music and movies direct to most MP3 or MP4 players or SD cards.

We’re promised 150 movie titles at launch, including recent smashes such as Hell Boy II and, er, Mamma Mia.

PoPs will be popping up throughout the land in cinemas, gyms, universities and travel stations – watch out for our exclusive hands-on vid very soon…
