Does this matter if you can make a digital copy (cd, cartridge, online game download) ? I think the key issue is ownership, not media. If you pay for a game it should be yours; up to you to back it up, etc, but yours. That's the legislation that needs to be set and explicit. Regulate an option to buy or outlaw licensing for obvious products; games, software apps that serve a purpose (office apps, cad, etc). I'm not sure how we get around online only apps though. We should be able to own stuff without having to be on a network. I would pay a premium for that, but it really should be the standard. It should be obvious that such things are ridiculously burdonsome and consumer unfriendly. We know the current regime in the USA is unfriendly to this but I think most voters would prefer this to the tyrannical methods companies currently use to "protect their IP" yet someone they are still making huge profits before and after it became a trend.
