All these kinds of protection systems effectively put an artificial limit on a games lifespan, and change the way we think about ownership. Whenever I've bought a game on a CD or DVD, I've always thought of it as I would a book. I've bought it and it's mine. Not so anymore. All I've bought now is the right to use the product for a time that's limited either by the product's physical lifespan (CDS/DVDS will eventually deteriorate) or by the length of time developers stay around to support it (as with server authentification).

I feel exactly the same way as the type in bold states.
And of course some of the other things he said too!
