When used in the context of video games, DRM often limits the amount of times you can install a file or the number of places you can install a file. It is not some sort of bug or something that screws up your computer, it is an intentionally put in device to limit our rights to the game we purchased." If anyone has ever read the EULA or any game license since the beginning of game licsences this is standard. Games have always insisted on a single install at any one time. Though it's been loose about being installed on another machine, providing it was uninstalled on a prior machine. This move to impliment heavier DRM is only to enforce this ignored licsence. btw DRM sucks. |
DRM does suck, thats what the point of my thread was. And yeah they've always wanted only one install but this actually enforces it and also it limits reinstalls (WTF!?)
