    some says that 5.50 gen is better, but sad to say, 5.50 gen can't access PSN.

    ^^yeah but 5.50gen just got that option taken away on monday lol...so it's either 5.00m33-6 or 5.50gen-B2, those are you 2 best options for cfw. i actually loved 5.00m33-6, but i'm just as happy and satisfied with my gen cfw, it runs everything that m33-6 did...

    so it's your call really

    Indeed Goku, GEN-B2 has better compatibility with newer games I believe... Also, M33 firmware CANNOT ru MINIs, so your fucked if you plan on getting any via MediaGo.
    i am an idiot.

    I would say 5.50 Gen-B2 because m33 is not really being maintained anymore.

    It is. Dark Alex is still working, but on what update we don't know. I STILL think that M33 is better than GEN, not only because M33 sounds better, but because of sheer compatibility. I tried reinstalling GEN twice because my ISOs wouldn't run.

    ^^but i've never had any issues with my iso's or needed to reinstall gen at all...so maybe it's just from different sources, the updates i mean, or something else...i've never had issues, and if DAX releases a new cfw, i'd def. install that on my psp again, but it seems FOR NOW (to me anyway) that gen's the only working cfw crew that's reliable and currently working to release the next update/s...for me anyways

    i'm being patient, i haven't flipped yet totally lol, only a little on monday when my psn access stopped and couldn't play RR online lol

    Gen is better... it is being updated whenever possible, while m33 hasn't gotten an update since who knows how long!

    in all defense on m33, they did start it all...i've always been totally satisfied with both firmwares, even though 5.50 is my 1st gen.

    so smokey, if DAX released a 6.10m33 tomorrrow, you wouldn't install it, you'd still wait on gen?? lol think about it bro

    i'll install whoever releases it 1st, an official cfw not a spoofer like these other guys and i don't think if team mack released 1 i'd install it...they're way too new to me and keep posting too many videos that prove a whole lot of nothin to me lol...

    but right now, i'm with you on the gen...so no more thread jacking this guys post, talking to myself too lmao!

    Why not try Gen B2 out, then if you dont like the fact that it isnt compatible with certain homebrew try 5.00 M33. However, Gen B2 is gonna be updated more. and ive heard that DA isnt gonna be updating M33 anymore, and throughout the Gen B2 updates it should be able to play more homebrew.

    Excellent post, one more thing I don't need to start a new post about, LOL.

    I thought someone said that with one of the CFWs, you can make a change to a txt file to get media go to work with everything.

    I am mostly just concerned with being able to play my existing games/movies just as well if not better, keep Internet access, play emulators with games I already own, play music, and use homebrew/apps like PSPTube. Not too concerned about newer games, as I do more other than play games with my PSP.

    Sounds like GEN-B2 is the way to go right now. But I hear/read rumors but who knows for sure.

    It is. I've been running it for about a week and i'm in love with it. i can run all my homebrew and my emus...(Okay GPSP) and PS1 games flawlessly. Try it out.
