What people forget is this is a consumer driven market. Valve and other game distributors depend on us not the other way around. If you don't like Securom, then don't buy it, thats it, you have cast your vote. I myself don't care and most don't. If your so mad, go over to piratebay and yell at the pirates who have caused all the DRM craze in the first place.
The problem is no one knows what the pirated numbers even are, are companies losing 1,000,000 game sales or 100. Is it still an issue or has this just become so ingrained that logic no longer matters. I don't think as I have stated above that most of the pirated downloads would translate into sales if all the pirated copies were unavailable.
