Well, let me give you an example from Germany:
Starcraft
no protection, just CD-Key
It was sold about 100,000 times.
There are a suspected number of 1,000,000 pirated copies going around.
How much more money would Blizzard have made if it had protected the game with lets say Safedisc?
Of course you can download NoCD cracks and fixed .exes almost the minute a new patch is released, but novice copiers who dont know places like GCW exist bite their tail off trying to copy it.

Well, im not in favor of copy protections eighter, but i can understand that the software companies do it.
