you can copy (some SF protected games) the problem can be getting it to play. ie no NOCD,NODVD ect ect unless a 1.1 copy is made. As far as im aware the problem arises when trying to get the SF protected game to run not to copy them. (i may be wrong though as i dont own ANY SF protected games and will NOT own any SF protected games so i can not speak from experience. Every other game i own i have backed up (and i own many games) and i belive this is a right we as consumers should have. SF is IMO a virus associated program where in it dose things that the user is not aware of and also alters the way in which windows works ect which is lets face it is what some viruses do. (thats trying to keep it in laymans terms). Come on consumers we need to let the devs ect know that we (the consumer) who are responcible for their profits know we are not happy and will not tollerate SF as a viable way to protect software when there are so many other viable options avalible to them. The only things that seem to work within the money
industry is money and so if a big enough dint is made in the profits of SF protected games the dev,s,publishers ect ect will get the message eventualy but we have to stick with it,see it through and there needs to be a larger amount of people refusing to buy SF protected games than there curently is. (in all honesty though i belive myself to be in a very small minority when not buying SF protected games which is bad news for the consumer as it gives out the message that we the consumer will tollerate anything so long as we are able to buy the games which begs the question as to what is the next thing we have to endure??)
