Removal of SecuROM from Spore
Dear Electronic Arts,It is the purpose of this message to petition you to remove the proposed Digital Rights Managements (DRM) solution, SecuROM, from the upcoming release of Spore in September. Echoi... continue reading »
"Why purchase and support a product when you get nothing but skrewed? Buy a DVD you can only watch 3 times? Ask permission to play the game I bought? Wait a week or more for customer service? The GAME is fantastic. The one bad point(secuROM) is bad enough "
"Shame on you!"
"Three downloads is silly. I've already spent all three just trying to get the Creature Creator to function on my computer. This is not a good solution for anyone."
"I'm a casual gamer, and I've been excited about this game for years. But if it has the SecuROM virus, I will not purchase it, period. I am not a criminal, I'm a gamer."
"I bought the Creature Creator, and they didn't tell me what this SecuROM does to my computer... I feel betrayed by the company."
"Securom must die!"
"If I'm going to buy a game, I'm going to buy it, not rent it."
"I will not be buying "Spore" with SecuROM"
"Glad to see some people are taking a stand against DRM"
"I refuse to have SecuROM on my computer"
"I was looking forward to Spore, but I'm afraid of what SecuROM might do to my PC. So I'm definately not going to buy Spore.."
"SecuROM goes too far"
"Three-install limit is a slap in the face to legitimate, paying customers."
"SecuROM just screws over legal consumers, while pirates can live happily without it's hassles. It definately needs to be removed from the game. There are simpler methods of protection that do not screw over the legal consumers!"
"I will not buy spore is securom is included"
"Please use another solution or up the install limit to an acceptable level! (More than the presumed "three installs.")"
"This simply ruins the game for everyone!"
"Please remove ALL SecurROMs if you want my business!"
"SecuROM hits the good guys, not the pirates. Don't do it!"
"The 3 install limit is a pointless practice in copy protection. Its pointless, will inevitably be cracked and is simply a nuisance to every fair and respectable PC gamer. We should not be made to the suffer for the few who download or install this game il"
"Remove SecuROM as it only punishes the legitimate users."
"A three time install limit is absolutely absurd. If I purchase the game, I shouldn't have to worry about it becoming a $50 paperweight after formatting my OS or moving to a new computer. I have owned starcraft for almost 10 years now and have installed it"
"SecuROM = guilty until proven innocent"
"I agree. I DEFINATELY agree."
"The pirates will have it cracked anyway, so it's not even worth the effort taken to put it in."
