Requirements for ripping and decrypting?

I've had three PSPs over the years, all of which have met grim fates. Finally justified buying a mostly-functional one. Thing is, I legally own a -lot- of PSP games (150 or so?) and a pile of DLC, but I prefer to play them on PPSSPP. As such my goal is ripping my UMDs and decrypting my DLC so I have access. What do I need to accomplish this? Just a basic CFW, or something specific with extra software? Any extra hardware?

First of all, awesome for having a big library. The simplest way is to redownload the original pkgs and extract them to ISO with pkg2zip, which you can then play on the emulator. The links to the game pkgs can be retrieved from your PSN account, using the PSDL Browser plugin. Links to all the tools and instructions are on the beta.nopaystation.com site. While you're at it, please contribute the JSON file PSDL generates so that any titles you have that are missing from the NPS database can be preserved in the NPS archives.
