Murder and Piracy are 2 different things, you cant compare the 2.

But in a business, as it always has been for decades, if one company has losses they make up for the losses by increasing prices.

As does software publishers.

As I said before the reason protections are so much in a huge scale is because the countless people downloading illegally. Once apon a time the net was full of free webspace providers, like xoom etc, they all closed that services because of warez sites. Now they are doing the same with games, introducing a protection that may well affect 3-5% of the population (but SF has been kind to make fixes for people which many of you have forgotten). PC's arent all the same, my systems is different from your own, but SF has caused me no problems whatsoever.
