This is not OK. Bleh...
Sorry, I just had to vent to people who understand.
Console yourself with the fact that historically, there's been no such thing as an uncrackable DRM

This is like the " I'll never buy a game from xxxx outrage" that happened when uncrackable DRM denuvo was applied to some computer games.. within weeks we saw the first break and after a few months it was an easy bypass.

So you have the option to continue buying and wait for some smart apprentices to find a way around it

It would be interesting, in a separate thread, to discuss how it works and then how to break it, except that it would be against the rules? Maybe on a different site, those discussions are already happening. The I am curious "how does it work" bit would be ok here ?
