I'm new here, what's all the fuss over Starforce anyway?

[jasondef]

Could somebody please explain to me in a layman's nutshell what exactly Starforce is, why its so evil, why should I boycott them, and how does it effect me negatively? I've had no problems so far playing SH3 off of DVD. I've read a ton of posts regarding Starforce and boycotting them, but so far all I can find is postings condemning them and damning them to hell, but nothing that actually explaining what the problem is! I've gathered so far that is has something to do with playing it off of the DVD version, but that's about it. There must be other newb's out there wondering about this, I hope. :hmm: And I know, coming from me the "I'm new here" routine must be getting old to some of you, but hang in there, someday I'll figure it all out! Besides, its the best excuse I have for ignorance, and fools people into thinking that I'm intelligent and just lack experience!
