When they talk about piracy they seem to be missing the elephant in the room that the DRM proponents and a lot of other people ignored. The pirates will defeat the protection, so it will bother only legitimate purchasers. Not too long ago Microsoft's new anti-copy "protection" was defeated two days before it was officially released.

This may cut down on used games and game rentals, but it won't have much effect on piracy.
