DRM: The Gift that Keeps on Taking

October 20, 2013 20:01:51.960

You know how vendors keep telling us that DRM is just fine, and won't possibly cause us any grief? Well... about that:

“Dear Batman Arkham Fans Microsoft has begun the process of closing down Windows Live services over the next year. To make sure there is no interrupted service, we will be moving the game to Steam for verification and update services for both the Base and GOTY versions of Batman Arkham Asylum and Batman Arkham City.”
“Unfortunately, you will not be able to continue playing from your current save. You will need to start a new game.”

So all of those movies and TV shows you've bought over the years? Perfectly safe, because Apple is a big, safe company - just like Microsoft :)
