EULA

[ByteMe]

over at AnandTech I was reading this article about Rainbow Six 3.

After contacting a Technical Support Representative of Ubisoft, I was told that they feel that this is the wrong way to go about anti-piracy measures but they have no say in the matter. They did point out that Ubisoft management claims that they're covered under their EULA but the EULA does not state once that you are not allowed to have virtual drives on your system during play. It only says that you are not allowed to make back up copies.

I don't have this game. Nor have I ever played it. Please tell me the part in blue is just a typo. I would think most would be screaming at them if that was in fact correct.

I've only made backup copies of one game with the intentions of keeping it for myself, and that's Worms 2 because it has to be in th' drive when you play. We have a LAN here and we wanted to play W2, so I needed to copy my legitimate CD.

Otherwise, in my experience any backup made is rarely used "morally." Am I allowed to say that here, mods?
