Unlike Sony's free music video service for the PS3 VidZone, and its game streaming service PlayStation Now, there's nothing similar for movies. If you want a movie on the PS Vita (by legal means, at least), then you have to either buy or rent it. If I want to watch a superhero movie, they're all in one place.
That is, you can't actually run Vita ROMs (digital game copies) or install native Vita apps that take advantage of the full power that the system has to offer. That means that a fully 'hacked' PS Vita can run NES, SNES, SEGA, Gameboy and other emulators, as well as PSP and PSone games.

Memory sticks and cards similar to those used in the PSP do not work with the PS Vita. Nor do other common formats like SD cards or the memory stick micro used in the PSPgo. Sony is a fan of proprietary formats for removable storage media on its devices and the PS Vita is no exception.

- Launch Autoplugin.
- Select [Install Plugin for SD2Vita] and press [Cross] to confirm.

Using HENkaku would be grounds for a ban, but so far there haven't been any confirmed bans that have happened because of HENkaku. The best thing you can do to stay safe is making sure you're logged out of PSN while using homebrew and use the History Deleter app beforehand whenever you do log into PSN.
