It's a CD key. If anything this just shows that even in DRM the consoles take around a decade or more to catch up.

Not really that simple. On PC, I doubt it's very common that CD keys are in use unless the game has online accounts that use the CD key, which is not very common for older games.

I can install and play single-player Starcraft with any CD-Key, but I can't get online unless it's unique. That was 13 years ago.

AFAIK there's tons of games that only check that they key is not in use at the same moment, not if it's never been used.
