I jailbroke my 2nd gen iPod about 4 years ago. I don't have it anymore and it was fun for a bit but I have a 5th gen now with no jailbreak. I can get emulators without jailbreak on it so I don't really care.

I did with my 3rd gen ipod. I felt guilty cuz of those in app purchases things so I stopped
There's apps that let you get apps, music and in app purchases for free, personally I don't use them

Yep. I use the play smurf village and had like 94482048 smurf berries from buying the 99 dollar one xD
I personalized my phone theme from head to toe. I have a very girly theme. Pink keyboard, safari theme, wifi bars, phone slider , battery screen, settings icons, compass, calendar and calculator theme,home screen Icons, page dots, volume controls pretty much everything. It took a long time but its worth it. My unlock is android style , and the lock an unlock sound is also custom. I don't bother using it for illegal apps or games. I use some cydia apps though like kill all apps running at once, adblocker, a custom slide animation of home screen , app renamer etc. I will admit my phone is slower but I think it's better on the newer iPhones. Since the iphone 4 only has one core processor. It doesn't really bother me though. I enjoy my phone , it's unique now.
My original PSP has custom firmware on it so I can play games on it. It's mostly to be able to play games that didn't come out here or are very expensive.
I did use it once to try out a game because I was unsure of whether or not it would be any good. I now own five different copies of that game. I'm terrible.

My Iphone 4 was Jailbroken and I started having some major issues with it because I cut down the OS to the bare minimum that I could to conserve battery on it. I just found the whole jailbreaking thing to be a messy, and undesirable experience overall. I didn't like how anything looked, felt, or worked. It all just felt majorly silly to me for the 6 months I had it. Most of the time I had to reboot my phone because things would stop working, even in the middle of a call.
I ended up dropping the phone and had to reset it with a black screen to send it back to apple, because Jailbreaking was a warranty breaker at the time. My Iphone 5 (Back when I had it) I had considered jailbreaking but it was just too much of a pain when I just use regular apps anyway. Not worth the trouble. I don't have an Iphone anymore, so it's not really a big deal to me.
I did root my nook tablet with Jellybean a couple years back, and I still have that all working on it, but I don't really use the tablet much anymore since most of the things I read are just on Google Chrome. My HTC One (M8) feels more comfortable in my hands than the tablet does, but I'd like to pick it up and start using it again anyway, feels like a waste if I don't.
Edit: I forgot I did use a phoenix setup for my old PSP 1.0 so I could play some games from overseas I couldn't get here without paying an arm+leg. Bricked my PSP, so I reset it. Still bricked. Ended up turning it on two years later and it had reverted back to the custom firmware and worked again. It was just weird so I reformatted the card and replaced the original battery. The battery life on it was shot, but I just got another PSP and did a case mod on it to make myself happy. Ended up cracking the motherboard on it.
Go me.

Sure, when I had an iPod. Now that I've gotten rid of it and switched to Android, I couldn't be any happier. Rooted my S II the day I got it, and it's still working great today on AOSP KitKat.
