I personally think, as i did with the nintendo wii system originally , that if Sony want to stop the hacking, its really up to them to plug the holes , in the same way as Nintendo have attempted to do.
If people have found flaws in their code , hardware or combination of both then then well done them and its not their fault that Sony missed the flaws or issues or bugs.

If a car manufacturer made a car and someone found out that kicking the bumper made the door open , do u think the car manufacturers would bring them to court for telling someone else about this issue ?
Its up to Sony to plug the hole and if they do , i would honestly be delighted for them , its up to anyone else interested to find more flaws and if they do that then hats off to them as well.

Hacking (a term which originally meant looking at code and was mixed up with cracking by hollywood) is a passtime for many and is not intrusive in a lot of cases - its just a curiousity about the code and how something works.

If someone can be sued for being curious then the worlds intellectual status has peaked and we are on a downhill mental spiral.

Try using http://wiiboxart.com - see if that works, its the original wii boxart site developed when hibern was first playing with his original cover loader

Somewhere in the original backup loaders question and answers thread , i gave an answer on this over a year ago : (May 18th 2009)
I have some detailed info on the whole thing somewhere as well if you want actual scientific proof, but id have to go looking.

Some idiot started rumours about it causing issues with the lifespan , and everyone else jumped on the untrue bandwagon.
Its all a load of bull that someone decided to spew out in an attempt to sound like he/she knew what they were talking about , but its totally untrue.

If you try to resize your WBFS partition you will lose all your games.
If you start off with multiple partitions it works ok - i have 3 on mine - Fat32 , wbfs and NTFS and it works fine.

You just need to have another drive to play with in order to move the games around if ur reformatting it.

Thanks for showing him the way





Thats a good suggestion BJx1994.
I could make the high quality covers on wiiboxart.com convert to a size thats printable to a DVD cover if there was enough demand for it.
Let me know if people want that type of thing ? - the covers on wiiboxart and on wiitdb were made for the wii applications to auto download the covers for the harddrive games moreso than for printing boxes, but its all possible.
