Do people like what PSP can do today?

If so, then thank these hackers you oh so love to hate.

Thank the homebrew community.

 

Unfortunately though everyone only looks at the negatives and chooses to ignore all the upside, which unfortunately is how it almost always works.

Homebrew is nothing but infringing on the corporations RIGHT to decide to possibly, maybe want to offer a similiar feature in the future and charge money for it.

Or at least that's how most people treat it now. 

I highly doubt any of these companies is going to give me majority of the apps you can find readily available to custom firmware PSP owners.

If they did we wouldn't need hackers.

 

Hackers turned a now useless XBox into a wonderful media device.

That's why I said "maybe want to offer". 

They may want to offer all those apps and they may not.  Either way you are wrong for deciding to infringe on the possibility that sometime down the road they made decide to possibly put together a similar application.  I was also being sarcastic.

I had a friend who used his Xbox for a Media Device... didn't even use it for games ever. 

I'm not into the homebrew stuff myself though.  In fact I think I'm the only person I know with a totally 100% Legit PSP.

I understand the stance on "maybe the would want to" but i'm that kind of person that enjoys being able to do whatever I want with something I own and don't care much for those that don't pay me.

Is it a messed up stance to take? Maybe, but I buy more than my fair share of titles. I still show plenty of support, although I know full well that there will plenty that don't, but other than the PSP the whole piracy thing isn't hurting so badly for the 360 and/or Wii and the Wii was hacked within it's first month if I am not mistaken.

Plus, piracy on the PS3 would be a royal pain in the ass. 20+GB downloads and then a long ass wait just for all that to burn to a disc? Let us not forget that these discs aren't cheap either.
