I got banned once for saying much less.
This is not condoning piracy. This is exposing a loop-hole to DRM.

In Australia it is consumer rights to be able to return goods if not up to standard. EB Games no longer allows the return of games that require Online activation for this exact reason. This is illegal but they have no choice.

This just shows that the retailers get screwed along with the consumers by dodgy DRM.

The real victim will be poor Timmy who goes to best buys and purchases his game only to register and find that his CD key is already in use... poor Timmy
