RR, I see you agree that stealing/piracy is never good. BUT....who are the valuable customers here? How do you determine this? I think that is impossible. Therefore, everyone gets the protection downloaded. Should we know up front it is being loaded? Yes. Do you honestly believe persons such as yourself think you will download a game without some type of protection program? Not these days!!! Like I explained to you a few days ago, I use Rhapsody for my music. I pay .89/song. If I cut off Rhapsody, I can no longer burn these songs to anything. But wait, I paid my .89 for the song. Not only that, without some great computer know how, I can not convert these songs to a different format to play them. IMO, this SecuROM is small beans compared to the other issues companies are dumping on your computer without your knowledge. When I cut off Rhapsoday, they never told me the songs I paid for are now unburnable or transferable to a disc or MP3 player. I guess I'm being concidered a criminal here as well? I have no desire to transfer to any place but my daughters MP3 players or burn to disc for my own personal use. So, my point is and by reading your post that you have been considered a criminal before the fact. Not, so really. There is no way UBI can determine who is a criminal therefore, all get the SecuROM.

Just my observations RR.
