Confused between copper straight-through and crossover cables

I've been confused on the devices a straight-through and a crossover cable would be used for because i have been under the consumption that straight-through is used for unlike devices(router to switch) and crossover is used between like devices(router to router). I keep seeing people using crossovers between unlike devices, but others using ST's on like devices. So i was just wondering if anyone could clarify for me which cable would be the correct one to use in a network between devices? Still kind of a newbie to all this.
