Mudface said: OK, substitute 'license' for 'game' in my post above. The point still stands- there's the potential to be locked out of something I've paid for. I've already said that I'll be spending my money on ME2 instead, unless something radically changes with this. And no one's saying that no DRM will mean no piracy- you're just making a strawman there. What they are saying is that not only does DRM do nothing to stop piracy, the pirates actually get a superior version of the game without the crapware, while the people who've paid for the game get the inconvenience. |
I don't think you understand what a license is...
Purchasing a license to something doesn't always mean that you purchase it and whatever it licenses you to use allows you to use it forever. Some licenses do that but not all do. It's up to you to be knowledgeable about what the license gives you (and you are) and then up to you if you want to abide by that license.
In this case, the license allows you 15 installs. You aren't being locked out of something you paid for, you paid for 15 installs and that's what you get.
