THANK YOU! For some reason, that seems to be a bit hard to understand.

I dont agree with adding multiMANs code to it, but what they offer is support and that may not be illegal or against the source code license it was released into; it does not add cobra functionality to multiMAN, it allows multiMAN to be a alternative to their manager, all special/ custom functions of cobra are only present in the dongle, multiMAN is just a way to load/access them, it does not have those functions on his own/ in his code

Well you need to understand how GNU Public Licence works.
For short answer I'll say that they cannot use it in any way for a restricted public that is giving them profit or promotion over a commercial product or service.
So since anybody that doesnt have the dongle cannot use it then it's absolutelly illegal untill the author gives them an authorization or they get to an agreement(income wise).

Also for the 3rd time. YES you CAN use directly your PSP as a UMD drive on PS3, with or without mM (without you need a tiny trick by swapping the USB function from Memory Stick to UMD so when you enter USB mode you can read the contents of a UMD)

Only because they introduced it in an update due to pressure from their customers. Otherwise they would have been content selling pirated discs.

Cobra can be used for =
Legit PS3 games
Legit PS2 Games
Legit PS1 Games
Legit PSP Games

TrueBlue can be used for =
Legit PS3 Games


BUT

Cobra can be used for =
Pirate PS3 games
Pirate PS2 Games
Pirate PS1 Games
Pirate PSP Games

TrueBlue can be used for =
Pirate PS3 Games

Both the dongles have similarities, now regardless of what the dongles do.

It is plain to see, to anyone with eyes in their face and a brain in their head, that Cobra are using the popularity of mM to push sales of the device.

It is clear that they are using a higher version number of mM, to make people think they are getting a massively superior mM.

Using a free popular piece of software on the sole purpose of churning in sales = wrong

I really don't know what you are trying to say sometimes >.<

You buy legit 3.60+ game > use Paradox eboot > use TB dongle > play 3.60+ games you bought on 3.55.....

I do not think Sony can sue the producers for the reasons that these places do not have a copyright system like that of the U.S. (In the country of production, the creator of the dongle is not doing anything illegal according to that country's copyright policies) or they are using their own software on their own dongle which means it is their technology to sell.

@GregoryRasputin
Isn't this whole comparison of the dongles off-topic?

The main point of this thread is that multiman was released for a proprietary Dongle and there are rumors that Deank might be with the creators of said dongle makers. As well as if it is legal or not if Deank did not agree to letting them use his program on a proprietary dongle.

@Cheesethief oh ok thx this could be a reason...

This is really sad. I don't think Deank is involved in this crap though...
