I appreciate the sentiment, but it is meaningless without numbers. It is
true that copy-protection offends some honest people, but the numbers I
heard seem to indicate (unless you have data to prove the opposite) that
copy protection is economically advantageous in many instances. Honest
people will just have to get over it :). Of course, the more transparent the
copy protection system is, the better (potential) customer reaction can be
expected.
