Well, considering they're asking something that isn't feasible, This's the end of convenient digital distribution in Europe. |
Why would it not be feasible?
|
Because there is no way it can be done in a feasible and convenient manner. It means one of the following things:
1. That courts have endorsed charging money to pirate out digital copies of a game.
2. That all digital games will now have DRM. Goodbye independent development studios like Mojang unless they want to sell out completely to a larger corporation; who might reject them for any reason, leaving the small company no options for distribution in Europe. This goes for foreign developers and distributers as well.
3. Some physical device will be required for authentication; defeating the purpose of digital distribution.

Why would all digital games need DRM because of this?
Do you see gog.com stopping to sell DRM-free games?
