i said they try to, not they succeed :) i bought spore, now i'm not buying anymore ea games because of the drm sheme they use in any titles out, i also don't play anymore spore because of securom infestation if i play it . i'm sticking to companys like bethesda or stardock that CARE about what we feel using the product they are selling to us. with EA i'm feeling like a suspect , "you buy from us the right to play OUR game, it not belong to you, we can just take it away

EA is not trying to stop piracy, they try to get more control of what leggit customers do with the software. like sell it later @ used shops. they try also to stop casual piracy like a copy for your friend , they also wan't to stop people to lend games to friends/brother/>insert anything here because that's sales that they don't make. or that they might make.
bought spore at the release, i didn't know about the securom issue but then i saw that this game was f****d up with such a thing i was so pissed off that i uninstalled all my ea games on my pc including spore (i now use the dvd under my cofee mug) removed the EADM software, removed securom from my system (i hope) and i promise and i alway keep them i'll never buy again an EA game until they stop adding crap on they're released games or until they are a dead compan
