Okay, but what about pre-steam DRM? But what about services that have existed for less time and actually done the slippery slope shit you're cowering in your boots about (Uplay)? You're so busy listing possible problems and making problems up that you are not comparing and contrasting your available options. It strikes me that you are complaining to complain and don't have realistic solutions in mind, you're asking for either a rental system where you put up collateral to play a game or you're suggesting that the developer only be able to sell a game once. Are you one of those crazy "first sale doctrine" sovcit types?
