==Overview==
 +
AetherSX2 is essentially a closed-source Android port of [[PCSX2]]. However, unlike the incredibly shady [[DamonPS2]], it uses the current version of PCSX2, which is almost entirely licensed under the [[Licensing#LGPL|LGPL]] save for some minor GPL parts (namely the MPEG decoder which uses libmpeg2, and the code for the on-screen display which uses [[wikipedia:FreeType|FreeType]]). To be fully compliant with the LGPL, Tahlreth is expecting to rewrite the GPL code.<ref>Bositman (November 24, 2021).

To be fully compliant with the LGPL, Tahlreth is expecting to rewrite the GPL code.[2]
