The Silent Hunter 5 in DVD

The CD key you find on the backside of the included manual booklet (or printed on the disk) is usually valid for a world region, EU, US, Asia etc. So if I sell you my DVD from Europe, it will not install on your US system, but on every EU system.

I'm not 100% sure that's the way it goes for SH5 DVD however, by releasing this game Ubisoft was experimenting a new DRM system (with total failure from their point of view), so you are probably right, THEBERBSTER. This also means that at some point my DVD will not work anymore, not allowing me any longer to install the game.
