Sony need to improve their service for the GO!. The solution lies within Sony, not in an ISO loader.
By the way; can't you just make an UK or Hongkong PlayStation account to acces their stores? Just like the can with the PS3?
To say I'm pissed is a little over the top to describe my disappointment in the system.
Now to discuss whether an ISO loader is bad for a system is a really up and down argument; thusly, it's almost impossible to come to conclusion whether piracy will REALLY hurt the system in general.
I'm only basing my conclusion for an iso loader because at this time, it has more variables on it's side to somewhat "sound" like it would make the system better. Now yes, Sony is doing the (most?) they can with the system to a certain degree, but like many company's they lack the creative zest due to money, greed, or copyright issues (hence why they don't support emulators). So why is that bringing custom firmware or an iso loader stopping devs? The apple iphone did not support bluetooth keyboards, tethering with certain systems and the whole amount of awesome innovation that homebrewers brung for the system. Did you know that many of apples implementations are based off what the hackers and homebrewers have done?
Of course, the company can improve it's product, but as wee ALL know in the case of apple or any other company (sony isn't the worst of them) they simply, just won't. That is why I'm only ASKING (people think of this post as if I'm complaining, goodness...) that devs can possibly see the GOOD that will come out of bringing innovation to this system; yes, i think an iso loader would be a great innovation, even for how much trouble it could bring as well.
Also, to answer you question about the HK account or such; no, i have not tried to do so, but if i am correct; i can only use one account to play the games i bought from that site. What if i needed to switch between them? The psp go has only wifi and LIMITED bluetooth tethering support (there you go, another reason to hack this thing with a CFW). This is a ridiculous hassle that I'd rather not want to deal with as it can only bring problems with my credit card and my experience of using the system.
It's pretty obvious though, if account sharing was available, then wee'd have piracy already; which (i think) rules out the reason for me having to try this.

Thank you! I usually don't get this.

Another downside is it has a smaller screen than the original PSP.
Aye, but that is not something wee can change; this thread is more to things wee do have influence over :P

As i said before, i respect my game developers and yes, i do know there will be who do not. If people are going to pirate, they will pirate in any way they can; if people are going to buy their games, they will buy their games out of respect and/or their parent's just buy it for them as a gift (gifts are usually never pirated). I'm only talking about the good that can come of the iso loader in the sense that it allows customers to keep with the system instead of having to dump it because of all these issues. In response to the HK account question read my answer to fl0w.
