Data transfer from PS3 with multiple PSN accounts

Hello.
So, I haven't been able to find a clear answer on this.
I'm thinking of getting a Vita (although I'll probably wait a few more months), and there's something that bothers me.

As you all know, you can only use one PSN account on a Vita. However, I like being able to download stuff from PSN stores from all regions and I don't want to have to reformat/switch memory card every time I want to use something from a different region.

I was wondering if I could use the PS3 to transfer data bought from different PSN accounts (one is European, one American, one Japanese) to the same Vita memory card and use it without getting any problems.

I've looked it up and I've read posts saying it works, and others saying it doesn't, so I'd like to make sure.
If this doesn't work, is there any other way to transfer content from multiple accounts to a single Vita memory card?
Thanks in advance.

it doesn't work, sony wanted to prevent piracy and they have increased their security methods with the new handheld. As you are aware, you can only have one account within the Vita, if you try to log in with another account it will give you an error saying that "you must log in with the account that's linked with the vita", if you put a different memory stick it will tell you to format it first because the content does not belong to the player that's linked with the vita account.
I have tried everything, the only way to actually get the games would be to download them from the vita with the account that is authorized.

Good luck,

PS: that's the solution for now until an exploit or CFW is found, cheers.

Lame
I guess I'll keep my money for a while then. xD
Also, I'm pretty sure it's not from piracy, but more like "We designed the Vita to be played by only one person so that your families and friends will buy more consoles off us"
