Piracy and You - A How To Guide on Letting Developers Know that DRM Suxorz

Apparently, DRM wasn't the savior for Spore, since it was rated the 'Most Pirated Game of 2008' at a staggering 1.7 Million downloads. A report from ShackNews shows the startling numbers...

Spore / 1,700,000 / Sept. 2008

The Sims 2 / 1,150,000 / Sept. 2004

Assassins Creed / 1,070,000 / Nov. 2007

Crysis / 940,000 / Nov. 2007

Command & Conquer 3 / 860,000 / Mar. 2007

Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare / 830,000 / Nov. 2007

Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas / 740,000 / Jun. 2005

Fallout 3 / 645,000 / Oct. 2008

Far Cry 2 / 585,000 / Oct. 2008

Pro Evolution Soccer 2009 / 470,000 / Oct. 2008

Do you think this lets developers know that DRM is useless? Is it useless? I think the safest way to keep your game from being pirated, is to sell it through the Steam store. The game is bound to that user account (kinky) and boom, its secure. At least, I think it is...
