I've never denied being a pirate. But there is a difference between pirating and feeling like you are entitled to the stuff. One pirates pragmatically, the other pirates to satisfy an insatiable lust. One to save money, the other to eliminate it's need. One doesn't get offended when they encounter stronger security measures. They go around. The other takes it personally and vows to destroy it's creator and their children. Also being a pirate doesn't entitle you to treat others like your slave. From the beginning this has had almost nothing to do with piracy vs anti-piracy, rather capitalism vs anti-capitalism. The anti-piracy argument was just used so their users (who are pirates) can act like their the moral ones in the situation, in the end it is just their desire to get what TB offers, without actually paying for it. And that would be okay, if they at least didn't act like total pricks with their vengeance plan. They didn't want to pay, but that wasn't good enough for them to make their own decisions, they had to make everybody else's as well. And if you didn't agree with them you were just a dildo user to them. And you just loved DRM. Also the DRM argument was a shitty excuse, because everytime it went back to "they're making moniez". That and the hardware argument. Yet for every time they mentioned how TB sucked because they put security on their product, they praised one of the clones, despite the fact that they had security on their dongles as well. And now they seem to be hailing E3 as the best thing since sliced bread also seemingly forgetting the part where E3 will probably have security on their dongle as well.
They are infringing copyright for sure, but you can't deny that they do more than just "decrypt and resign". There are sprx files that need to be patched as well as other files. I'd say that the decryption process is really only about 20 percent of the process. They probably dump the decrypted eboot and other files from memory. And really, if it was that easy, why haven't you or somebody else started cracking the eboots? Well somebody other than the elites that people funded to do exactly that.
My dear Albedo, I love the way you promote submediocre 1 line comments with 20 lines of brilliant, refined judgement. Sorry for the off topic but I love this kind of stuff

Well, writing a Christian rock-themed blog helps him a lot when it comes to writing novel-sized arguments.

KMEAW could play pretty much all titles up to 3.60 pretty much, and I am pretty sure TB could play them too.

KMEAW can't "play" anything. It is a firmware, and a firmware based on patches from flukes1, wutangrza, netkats, geohot, graf_chokolo, waninkoko and few other developers that ACTUALLY CREATED 3.55 CFW. Sadly "kmeaw" is the popular name, because he did put 3 patches in one PUP to make it easier for everyone.
What lets you PLAY the games are the various implementations of syscall35 (kakaroto), syscall36 (flukes1), syscall8 (hermes) + apps like Rogero, Gaia, BM, OBM, Hermes Manager or mM.
Contrary to what you've read or been told - all these apps would work just fine on 3.60, 4.20+ firmware (if you find a way to install and launch them), but without the help of sc8/35/36 (or whatever number a dev picks) and without the coding of these (wrongly called) "payloads" - you won't be able to 'load backups'.

Hi deank why don't you take a version of multiman compatible with all the backup 3.60+ , all in one so we stand from balls these cursed dongle and we will have a normal scene as all the other and thou shalt be our Savior, who do you think?
multiMAN is just an application running in GameOS. Although it can decrypt/encrypt EBOOT.BIN files - that's not its purpose and currently it depends on your configuration/firmware/external hardware for some functions.

Sin, however, with the same, we will be forever grateful for everything you did for us and that we continue to do.

If some one had leaked/released appldr keys from higher OFW then we can use it to decrypt eboots from higher version then fix it using DeanK EbootFix tool to be able to run them in 3.55 CFW.
So without this keys multiman can not run 3.60+ games.
