Now heres an interesting thesis.
But if you dont backup your original CDs 1:1 how can you be sure that patches will work for your copy? For example OFP patches come with the safedisc protection altogether. You cannot patch your game if you have copied it using a fixed .exe. You would need an unwrapper for the latest safedisc which most people dont have.

I would also rather see unprotected games again, but unfortunately the war has started and it seem like there will be no end to it in the near future.
