If I revert back to my childhood pirate brain at the time... I got 10, 15, 20 and sometimes 30 games at once for next to nothing. The fact that one of them didn't work really didn't bother me all that much, I still had tons of other games to play with. And when they were all used up... the next batch of 10, 15, 20 or even 30 games would be bought in an instant.

I can't really recall there ever being a case where a copy protection held me back from playing a game for a long period of time. Maybe I had to wait a month but then "my guy" would have a working copy.
