I was wondering, what happened to the PS3 key files from the website?
I haven't downloaded any for a few months but when I did a while back they would show the disc key in notepad while now they only show unintelligible symbols. If I remember correctly they were 34bytes (32 for the key + a new line) while now they are only 16. Also, weren't there dkey too before?

We changed from text format to hex format not a long time ago. If you still need the old text file format (.dkey) you can find the whole set in Downloads on the main page.

What does the change do exactly (apart from what I said)? I do not have advanced knowledge in all that. And why changing? I am a little curious.

No other changes besides the format. Changed because apparently most (or all) apps only support hex format.
