What the industry comes up with. The bottom line is making money, isn’t it. Those who are too restrictive will loose, those who work out a equitable scheme will win.

I don’t have a whole industry behind me to inform me what the final answer is/should be, so I certainly can’t answer you question with anything more than this general statement.

Well, the industry has come up with quite a few turds as of late, with regards to PC games. I have no issues with a cd check, or a key code or a one time online activation. What I do have a problem with is DRM that has install limits, hidden device drivers that remain even if you uninstall the software it’s tied to, constantly requiring you to be online while you play, DRM that degrades system performance…
