These kinds of idiots piss me off.  "spawning issue"?!  What this moron 
really means is that a person could just use that virtual cd to copy the 
cd on to his friend's harddrive with the game still runnable so that his 
cheap friend doesn't have to buy the game.

I mean, here in Canada, the game is only like 40 to 50 bucks, CHEAP!  
battle.net is free, what more do these fucking pirates want?  games to go 
for 90 bucks apiece so that there is nobody to copy their stolen games 
from?

I applaud blizzard in their pricing of the game, and as far as I know, 
even my cheapest  theif friends are buying this game EVEN THOUGH they all 
have have virtual cd AND huge harrdrives.
