Well, it's too bad that all the attempts of making good and non-intrusive DRM systems fail... It feels like the online authentication variant is the only one that really works in the long run, and I don't mind if games use it to get the money needed to develop niche games. Sure - thats easy saying sitting on a 100 Mbit fibre connection that is rock solid and never goes down (great telecom infrastructure in Sweden - maybe 2 hours of Internet downtime in 3 years...)
Edit - happy owner of RoF, and plays Silent Hunter III regularly with no Starforce problems... Will buy SH5 and SoW too (which probably will have some online authentication system to - at least for multiplayer).
