EA responds to DRM and other complaints about Spore

Tyranitar24 | September 16, 2008 | News | PC Wii 
There have been tons of complaints about the DRM in Spore ever since it has been released, mainly because of the fact that the game can only be activated on three different computers.

MTV went in and talked to EA about what the plan to do about combating that problem, as well as other ones. They responded, hit the quote and source to check it out.
Complaint: A legitimately bought copy of “Spore” can’t be activated on more than three different computers — ever.

EA Response: That will be changed, according to the EA spokesperson, who told Multiplayer that the current limit on the number of computers that can be associated with a single copy of “Spore” is “very similar to a solution that iTunes has. The difference is that with iTunes you can de-authorize a computer [that you no longer want associated with your iTunes content]. Right now, with our solution, you can’t. But there is a patch coming for that.” The official timeframe for that patch is “near future.”
