The problem with dongles or other physical protections is that it pretty much shuts out digital distribution which is the single largest growth sector in PC gaming. Doesn't Steam account for something like 25% of PC game sales already?

I think it was more like 5-10% last I read, but the thing that is currently exploding is the growth of that sector. It's not huge right now, but it will be.
