For now. I was strictly talking about Steam downloads.

The fact of the matter is that steam is a good step torward anti-piracy in games but its not a proven system by any means.
Piracy prevention isn't proven; it's disproven. And Steam hasn't been disproven.

I think the best you can get with piracy prevention is "works for the most part." Steam definitely fits that bill. It doesn't quite stop the hardcore pirates, but it works well enough to deter casual piracy.
Hostages? **** em'
the only true piracy deterrent is good online play.

Well now the piracy guys are going on private server to get around this, the only game this doesn't work well with is WoW, because it feeds off of that huge online community. But FPS shooters like CS and Unreal can be played on private servers with small enough matches to not detour the pirates.
