To cut a long story short, I just finished installing a thumb drive as my Vita TV's primary storage devices, as well as downloaded several games to the system. However, when I look at the "System use" storage in the Content Manager, something that I noticed is that it managed to baloon to well over a dozen GB. Is this an issue with some of the games I downloaded, or is it some unneeded files that I didn't delete when changing storage methods?

I remember having a similar problem a while ago where, after downloading some games from PSN, the games didn't delete their installation files like they were suppose to, so it added up to a lot of storage space being inaccessible. And, how I had to solve it was transfer all my files to the PC, format the card, then transfer all my files back onto the Vita. Is this a similar circumstance?

Never mind, figured it out. Turns out that the Content Manager is extremely stupid in how it organizes files. It categorizes some game files, the patches, and the DLC for games all under the title of "System Use".

    i used to go out to the recycling center every couple weeks and look at the crts and other electronics people would drop off. Usually screens were broken or severely scratched from being tossed around. Did find a good one here and there, but never anything like a 1080i widescreen crt.

    Is it piracy if it was released for free? Not in my opinion, but I also think it's not piracy if buying it isn't owning it, and it's not piracy if you can't buy it from the original creators anymore.

    Free release can have loopholes where they still make money through ads
