"Very easy to setup-free sort of."
Version: Locura Personal Media Server 1.0.1
Pros
Very easy to setup and use. No longer need to buy extra memory cards!
Cons
The best features of the program are unavaible unless you buy. Such as streaming audio and downloading video onto the PSP. You can look and see what's on your hard drive but thats it. I use it primarily to access my photos(jpegs) so for me the free version is fine but being able to download video is sure tempting.

"Great Potential, but not finished in my opinion"
Version: Locura Personal Media Server 1
Pros
By far the most PSP friendly web server out there.
Cons
I could not get the installation to work correctly, I know alot about computers and had to basically hack the install to get it to complete (kept almost completeing, then giveing me some time out error), was able to get the service started and running after I hacked the install.
Issue #2, with the videos, I use PSP Video 9 to encode my files, and they automatically include a .THM file for all my videos. This program doesn't use them at all, therefore the videos only have their unfriendly names (like M4V10053.MP4), and not their regular title, I was not able to get the audio to show anything, and the photos button didn't work at all (may have been due to haveing to hack the install)
**Conclusion: installer needs work, and program needs a few tweaks to the features to get it to the point where I would buy it. Once they fix the installer, and get it so that the videos are compatible with my PSP video encoder I would gladly pay $30 for this program!

"Excellent media gateway for PSP users."
Version: Locura Personal Media Server 1
Pros
If you have a PSP, a wireless access point and a music collection sitting on your home PC, then you need this piece of software. It is a very inexpensive and effective way to get wireless music playback via your PSP. Hook up one of the many available speaker systems and you've got a music source to enjoy anywhere within wifi range. Installation is simple with just a few clicks to configure the location of your files. Users with personal firewalls may need to open port 80. The webserver is customisable and is clear and simple to use via the PSP interface. The user can browse music folders and add them as RSS feeds. Support is excellent as well. Highly recommended!

"No international selling"
Version: Locura Personal Media Server 1
Pros
Easy set up for very basic tool. Gallery is free, install on every system, need some work to match psp format. So pricey solution for lazy, if one can buy it ...
Cons
That dumb on line store is US only, the field "State" must be answered despite it doesn't make sens in lot of countries so address doesn't match credit card one and transaction is impossible : The transaction resulted in an AVS mismatch. The address provided does not match billing address of cardholder.
