Piracy ulit..

I've been thinking about the "ways to avoid piracy"

- broken bit
- physical hardware
- online activation

how can this be cheated?
-broken bit, if a copying machine was used (not pc+nero but bit by bit copying) of course that broken bit will be copied because that machine doesnt care if that is an error unlike a computer that will stop copying because it sees an error

-physical hardware, if you know what's needed to be sent by that hardware, you can make it yourself, i bet it's still cheaper

-online activation, point their servers address to a server that you setup(f you know the data being sent by their servers to activate your software)

but i remembered the ps2.. i asked sir jade pabico how sony's anti piracy works, because even if you copy the cd bit by bit, it still doesnt work, he said that it might be the cd/dvd's serial number, sony may have had reserved a range of serial numbers, and then if the ps2 reads that the cd/dvd is within that range, then it should run..

i just dont know if you can cheat that serial number
