I think most people understand that this means more support for Blu-ray. That doesn't mean we have to be happy about it.
And I agree w/ superchunk, pirating is not at all the same thing as buying used. If 1000 people want to play a game, and 500 of them buy it, and enough of them are willing to make copies for their friends, then 500 copies get made and everyone plays. On the other hand, if 500 people buy it and no one is able to copy it, then the other 500 people either have to buy it used or new. Not all of the 500 original buyers will be willing to sell their game, which means more sales will be generated.
I'd like to point out that it is entirely possible to be against DRM and against piracy. It makes sense, even -- because of pirates, law-abiding citizens have to put up with this DRM crap to play their stuff.
