Digital Rights Management, huh?  How can some of you say that limiting installs to 4 or 5 is fine?  How can requiring the Media to be in the drive be "fine"?  It's not fine, it's not good at all. My 4 year old grandson likes to play Microsoft's Motocross Madness 2. I bought this game what, 10 years ago? How in the HECK can a company expect this CD to last thru 10 years of being handled, put in and out of the drive, etc., just to PLAY the game? And don't tell me to write to MS to get another disc. I already have one, I bought it.

How would it be if THIS Cd were limited to 5 installs?  I would have been facing trouble 8 years ago. You really want that for your games 10 years from now?  THINK!  The games are ours, we bought them, and we should be free to do what we like with them. Prosecute the pirates, persecute the pirates, but don't mess with the people that BUY the software. The DRM is BS. If you buy a book, are you prohibited from loaning it?  No, there are libraries that loan copywrited material. So, what makes a game so different?  The limited installs are the same as "Can only loan the book to 5 people, and then you have to burn it, or call us for another license". Total crock.
