Installing the game puts you through a cd key process in and of itself. I haven't bothered READING the thing, but if it's anything like ones I've read in the past, the "norm", it probably states something like "You agree that this is merely a LISCENSE to USE the game and that your rights are limited to what is in this liscense since you don't legally own the game itself" and then it details the terms of the liscense agreement. Legal speak, and little kids agree to it every time they install some software. I really hate being exposed to "legaleese" when I just want to be entertained, but I can't ignore the reality that something happened when I clicked "agree".
"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
