Why, exactly, would pirates care about Spore's DRM? If your intention was to pirate the game, there was a perfectly functional copy, totally unencumbered by DRM, sitting up there for you on Bittorrent - for free - on the day of launch. No pirate, with the possible exception of the person who originally uploaded the game to the Internet, ever saw Spore's DRM.

1) I never thought anyone from such a well known company would speak such truth and have such common sense. I give a bag full of Kudo's to this guy for finally making it apparent to everyone that DRM only affects those who buy the game (well..and those who pirate a game which the clone or crack doesn't work)

2) Way to advertise bittorrent lol....
