Yes but even so a pdf file certainly is NOT the same thing as a book you can look at while playing the game.

a cdkey + a nice book would be good enough i think. Software protection can in most cases be cracked and only the buyers of the game will be punished.

but again $3-500 equipment vs $30 game, if you're stealing the game then i think it's someone that never would have played it anyway. I don't care if it's just a blank box with a disc in it, i'm getting it either way. Only thing that would stop me from getting it would be starforce or similar...

Between printing and shipping how much would that add to the cost of the game?
