PzC Kharkov '43 Just Released

RE: PzC Kharkov '43 Just Released
No, DRM is not a price we have to pay for "niche" games. Matrix games uses an apparently successful model of digital download with a key allowing installs that aren't tied to a specific computer and installation/uninstall through a server. It's fine many of you don't care about what DRM is used. It's unacceptable for me. I have about 50 of JT's games on my shelf (that's $1750 @ $35 per), and I'm in 4 game clubs that play them since 1999. I hope VM is correct that the protection scheme could be modified. Use a system like Matrix has used for years, and I'll keep adding to my collection. Otherwise I'm done with new titles and I'll be content just to play the titles I already own.

The cost is another issue. It seems that download should cost less than production of CD's and packaging, storage, and shipping that would be reflected in the price. I guess the download price is less than the direct from HPS CD prices are, but it's more than the $30 I pay NWS. I'd be fine with $30 download since that also saves shipping, but I'm not real pleased with $40. Heck, even $35 wouldn't be bad since it's similar to the game +shipping. That's trivial to me compared the DRM. The DRM takes the new titles off my buy list unless it changes.
