In fact dog is not barking because of village but because of him :)

So please admit, you don't have money to buy so many games that you want 
(because you are obsessed with PC games) so you ae just hypocrite ie. you 
fight against Valve etc. just to be able to leech their games from Torrent 
for free and crack it etc...
Yeah, I say uselles fight!!

BTW, good mainstream game like Company of Heroes will do good regardless of 
copy protection or not (they are smart so they will choose not to annoying 
protection) because of big PR in magazines and web, and big word of mouth 
etc....

Now smaller games have a problem here - they must put some copy protection 
because they have bigger chance to sink if pirated too much and also those 
who boycott it will do much bigger harm to them than you boycotting Valve 
(now that is uselless job of yours as you didn't done any damage to them 
maybe just reverse :>)

The harrange on Distant Guns, Paradox, Battlefront on wargaming Usenet group 
is one of the shamelless act I have seen. And they also collected good 
numbers of bozos along the way. It is just disgrace. But does bozos have 
maybe done that in pure jealousy, they will never design good game on their 
own so they wanted to at least ruin some good developers out of pure malice 
and evil jealousy. Bozos.
