Guys, you both miss the point, it's not the fact that the game is protected that is the problem, it's what StarForce does when installed.
So it doesn't matter if later someone finds a fix for it (eg:daemon v4) and you can copy the game, you are still installing starforce when you install the game and that will still mess with most computers at some stage or other.
From what I hear and read when U finally go 64bit you'll be lucky if your machine runs at all if you've installed a starforce infected game.
So I also am joining the boycott, I do have quiet a few of the infected games but I will never buy another and hopefully nor will most of U.
I also think this should be a sticky, very important and very relavent issue for todays gamers.
