Why is the X3 copy protection such a big secret?

General discussions about the games by Egosoft including X-BTF, XT, X², X³: Reunion, X³: Terran Conflict and X³: Albion Prelude.

Ah, but Securom 7 is brand new, and has definently taken a page out of Starforce's book. It is just as highly invasive, even though it doesn't install drivers. Most people I with both I have heard talking it say that Securom 7 is worse then Starforce. If you want some proof go to the relicnews.com forums and look at the amount of trouble people are having getting Dawn of War: Winter Assault to work. It claims the game installation is "corrupt", and it all stems from the copy protection.

However, unlike Starforce, I haven't heard any instances of Securom 7 breaking anyones computer; so it does have that on its side.
Funny how a GAMES WORKSHOP game is one of the first to use the newest COPY RIGHTPROTECTION software. :roll:
