You can't compare the two, they aren't even the same thing, nor same type of thing.

[riddleofthejynx]

sure they are.

they allow you to play games that are restricted by sony.

they are technically necessary to run certain other software with ease.

they are sold on a type of storage medium. disc/dongle, they both hold data.

they both have to be in the ps3 at certain times for their functionality.

Dont say stupid things, it makes me want to shoot little bunnies.

[riddleofthejynx]

hmm.

well, i think TB is the most evil of the two..to whom it may concern.

but, they're technically no different in their purpose.

lol, are you serious?
Nothing evil about SwapMagic in my opinion.
I 1st used SwapMagic for my USA imports on my PAL console.
Then, yes, I used it for backups and then for booting homebrew from usb.

I didn´t have to wait for a business warez group to release DRM elfs or buy pirated games on disc.

I guess the most evil thing of SM is that they used the boot sector from an original game on their pressed discs. Crazy Taxi for the cd not sure about the DVD.
the 1sy SM cd used the boot sector from DVD region X

Like I said though with SM i am not limited to only SM releases.
TB, you get what they give you....with DRM

I´m not sure what you mean by hacking SM. Yes, you can download an ISO of SM to burn on disc. since it´s not a pressed disc it´s not much use unless you only have an older version of SM or are using another disc trick.
SM was also compiled into an elf so I would say it was pretty much hacked.
I have a few SM disc and never cared if it was hacked or not. I got no problem with spending money on hardware to hack a device.

I don´t spend money on DRM hacking devices because of DRM
so IMO, TB sucks the big one and I can´t wait for it to be hacked

While we're at it, we might as well compare gerbils and pancakes, because the comparison makes just about as much sense as yours. I actually used SM to softmod my PS2 way back when, and I never really used it for anything else, so no, I don't think SM is remotely comparable on the evil scale to something like the blue dildozer.

Swap Magic

• Swap Magic is a PS2 device
• Swap Magic allows unrestricted backups
• Swap Magic enables the ability of homebrew
• Swap Magic gave PS2 backup capability to BC PS3's before Cobra came, it gave it that ability, at least three years before the PS3 was hacked.
• Swap Magic gave the PS3 the ability to play PS2 Homebrew.
• Swap Magic works on your PS3, without the need of the console being hacked.
• Swap Magic in all sense and purpose was never really intended for the PS3.
  

True Blue

• True Blue is a DRM device that locks your PS3 down and lets you play a select amount of newer PS3 games

So you see, they have nothing in common, they are not alike, they are not the same.
