Biggest threat to the SOW series

[QuietMan]

a good question would be how much is gained from today copy protection at all?

music industry is a good example how managers try to use piracy to cover their own inability. After latest actions again P2P piracy gone down but same time sales dropped to record low, so what?

It is plain stupid to think that anyone who steals a sports car would buy one if he can't steal one. Porsche could easily make their cars impossible to steal buy introducing a delay of 1 hour from opening the door to starting the engine. Only small problem: Who would buy such a car?

Game distributors need to invent a lock that is as easy to use and fail save like today car locks. Beside this they need to concentrate on the people who plan to buy their products and not on the people who plan to steal it.

There are companies making billions $ from easy to use music downloads and handy tunes while the music industry is searching for a way to turn time back.
