Removal of SecuROM from Spore

"I was told about this Securom thing and I for one am against it, if Sims 3 follows Spore's example, I won't purchase it, lucky enough my brother read about securom before I pre-ordered Spore"

"Down with DRM!"

"I've been waiting for this game since I first read about it in PC Gamer a couple years ago, but I've decided not to purchase the game because of the inclusion of SecuROM. I understand EA's desire to protect their property, but the only people who will be "

"I will be removing my creatures from the sporepedia till such time as i feel the internet might not spoil my 3 downloads."

"No more SecuROM, no more intrusive and restrictive and crippling DRM!"

"No DRM or I'll go to the plethora of competing alternatives for my gaming, Xbox etc. I boycotted Madden before. I'll just as well do the same for this."

"I am not going to buy any future EA products until you get your act together and remove this crap off of your games."

"If it has Securom I won't buy it period, and that's a promise of all pc games!"

"I was looking forward to Spore, The Sims 2: Apartment Life, The Sims 3, future Command and Conquer releases, but now I will not purchase another EA Game until they stop punishing the legitimate consumers with bad anti-piracy software. This encourages pira"

"The problem isn't that EA is taking (admittedly futile) anti-piracy measures. If they want to spend money on developing software that is the virtual equivalent of beating their heads against the nearest hard and unmovable object, let them, that's their pr"

"Freedom to those that do no wrong !"

"What can I say..."

"I will not buy spore with SecuROM. It is unacceptable for paying customers to be treated as thieves."

"So long as SecuROM of any kind is on this game, I will not be purchasing it. I can understand a CD-Key and maybe SafeDisk as was used in the past. But the current DRM is far too extreme and treats law-abiding loyal customers like criminals/pirates."

"SecuROM is a useless program that doesn't protect the game and only hurts the people who bought the game."

"DRM is a waste of time and annoying."

"We must be united in front of this common imbecile threat that EA tries to shuve down our throats."

"I Don't Like SecuROM"

"yeah!"
