Sims 2 Bon Voyage Bugs and SecurROM Flame-O-Rama [BV patch download at risk]
JCSpencer:
Since there's so much Sony love going around I thought I'd chip this in:
Quote
In Sony BMG's latest triumph in public relations, its chief lawyer has argued that copying a song you already own (such as onto your own PC from a legally purchased CD) is stealing.
"When an individual makes a copy of a song for himself, I suppose we can say he stole a song. [Making a copy of a purchased song is just] a nice way of saying 'steals just one copy'," she said.
Not surprisingly, Sony BMG head of litigation Jennifer Pariser's comments in the US have sparked plenty of reaction. In her ideal world you would pay separately for each device you listen to a song on - a Sony device, I'm sure it's safe to presume.
Out of curiosity, what's your BBS username, Teren Rox? Would love to see what you posted that got you banned. LOL. I'm working on it myself. :)

I for one after reading MaxoidSam's post and the reply to some questions, like what the analysis report show:
Quote
OK, here is what is in the SecuROM analysis file, according to Sony DADC:
"The launch analysis file gives a snapshot of what is occuring at an attempted launch.
This includes:
*type of operating system
*drives / drive types
*loaded drivers
*installed software
*running processes
*running drivers"
Please let's not add to this adventure with posts that say "that's from Sony...of course that's what they're going to say!" Either you trust it or you don't. There's really not much more I can add. I hope some will be willing to help so that we can get the answers we all want. Thanks.

I would not send a report! More invasion and people are being sued for music copyright laws. Be careful.
Captain_Shepard:
Securom doesn't have the right to send information of our computers without the people accepting it. It's supposed to be anti-piracy.
Need more proof that's it's spyware?
Sam the T-man:
Why don't those of you with issues just tell Sam of your concerns, give reasons why you won't send analysis reports? Okay, might be a waste of time, but doesn't hurt to try.
As for this:

I'm at a loss for words :oogle:
Captain_Shepard:
I think that SimMaster already recevied enough emails lol
And there's no need to contact since they'll give you a bunch links to FAQ and techn issues.
As for the chief lawyer, that guy gotta be nuts. '' In her ideal world '' ? Of course if the profit went to Sony pocket . Bah I'm tired of senseless capitalism on software. Almost everything you do on the internet is illegal it seems.
