Several things to cover here.

First of all, for all of you who plan to use SF banners: It might be an idea to have them link to this thread or some other media informing people of how much SF allegedly sucks.

Next off, a little link.

As for the thing about my CD-burner no longe reading empty CDs due to StarForce: Happened to me, I think. Not sure yet, but it's acting up. The burner, that is, not StarForce.

I did a little take on an anti-SF banner if anyone's interested in hosting it. Right here

If anyone wants to host it or use the idea for a more advanced sig', go ahead.

True, the type of doorlock I have was picked as well, about 2 months after it was on the marked. So I definately gonna get rid of all my doorlocks, they don't work anyway.
Excellent sarcastic analogy. I'm in favour of both door-locks and copy-protection for the same reason: Yes, there are work-arounds, but it's better to have protection that can be broken than to have no protection at all. Pepper-sprays, door-locks, X-Rays at airports, not taking candy from strangers - all can be worked around, but they do SOMETHING. The fact that 9/11 happened doesn't mean all airport security should be removed, to put it that way :P .

However, if SF is as bad as people claim here (I just heard about this and you have to admit it sounds unbelievable that a copy-protection program would do all these things), then I'm all against it.

Add copy-protection all you want, just not one that screws up my computer (also see my location for another decent way of screwing pirates, especially those with Dial-Up connections)
