Warning- Never Pay For Homebrew

December 15th, 2005, 20:40 Posted By: wraggster

It has been brought to my attention by a source who i cannot divulge that a PSP site may try to charge by way of membership to download Homebrew files, now until it happens i will take this as a rumour but the site who i wont divulge at the mo plans to ask for membership fees for their downloads section, similiar to what other file downloaders do.

Now remember that Homebrew is for free, if any site asks you to pay via any means tell them a big no and to developers make sure if it happens that you force them to take your releases away from them, i hope this is just a rumour but with the PSP scene nothing surprises me.

Confirmation

Earlier i was pointed to a download on that server that had a price to download, i didnt take a screencap but i did post the news over at PS2dev in the release thread and the download is now free, but i wasnt the only one that spotted it, the price for download was .11$ and yes that isnt much but when software is supposed to be free its a downright cheek, the link is here for those interested --> http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?t=3571&start=210 (thats the link to what i posted in the release thread)
