SecuROM Lawsuits Status

Edge Online has a status reports on the lawsuits in the works against Electronic Arts over the DRM in Spore, which are still moving forward. They have a response from one of the lawyers involved to accusations these suits are frivolous, as attorney Scott Kamber says: "I appreciate that there's all different kinds sentiment out there. ... It's very important to us that the people and clients that come to us to be their lawyers understand that we support them and their position, that everyone has a right to decide what's installed on their computers." He also sums up the issue many take with some forms of DRM: "Ultimately, just because you buy a game doesn't mean that a company can do whatever it wants to your computer. I find it somewhat ironic that game companies or any company would seek to protect its own intellectual property rights by infringing on the intellectual property rights of the computer owner."
