SH3's DRM was Starforce. It caused trouble with some folks' computers, needed the disc in the drive, and was eventually removed. Cheap versions you buy today don't have it, nor do they need the disc in the drive.

SH4 came with SecureRom. Same story, and after sales died down it was removed and the disc no longer required.

SH5 doesn't require the disc, but does require a permanent internet connection, which some consider to be more insidious than the previous two. We're hoping it will eventually be removed as well.
