All forms of Copyright protection can easily be made useless. For example, SacuRom just becomes an additional thing a Cracker needs to add in to make his crack, you can literally crack and pirate every game out there worth playing. Even internet based games.I'm shocked that CD-Check is so popular.
1) It is so easy to crack (in many cases) that it does nothing.
2) It is very inconvenient for paying customers.
I think someone didn't realize the 90's ended.
CD-Checking is the only one that is outright damaging to your computer because of a constantly spinning CD, and SecuRom is just an underhand additional CD-Check.
Basically, anyone determined to get an illegal copy of the game will get what he wants, Steam only inconveniences the legitimate owners of the game and this bothers me.
