So what is this SecuROM stuff? Can anyone explain this to me?viewtiful26
SecureROM is the EA-appointed copyright protection coding, which is a form of digital rights management (DRM) that was supposed to reduce the number of pirated copies of Spore to about 0. Unfortunately, the pirates have already found a way to circumvent it and distribute it illegally on P2P programs such as LimeWire and Kazza. To date, there has been over 100,000 copies of the game pirated and illegally distributed in less than a week since the game was released, costing EA as much as $5,000,000 in lost sales due to piracy.
