one of the future project could be an online downlaod of the game by the publisher itself. with some kind of unique software that only activates your game..
but that will be cracked also ofcours..
what microsoft will do is implement somekind of "chip" (TPM) wich detect if the software you install is legetimet
this technologie is called,
trusted computing platform alliance (TCPA)
it gives an intification code to a software product. if you "share "data on the internet , the software does't work annymore. you can not make kopies of the game etc..;
then you have to get a hardware crack of the system like a modchip of something?
i don't know but it's already a feature in the new operating system of microsoft palladium i think.
i don't like the pirate buisiness.
in the beginning it looked verry nice for some people.
but it goes to big..
remember you once kopied a musictape from someone?
that's was on a small scale.
now it's totaly exploded.
