Yup saturn was the only one that had protection, Meaning you needed a mod chip or swap trick to play backups.

THE ONLY reason Dreamcast failed is because of pirating, screw every other theory XD

I remember getting CorelDraw 3 from a local "pirate" BBS back in the 80's on my "souped up" 386/DX40 on a 2400 baud modem...  it was 13 (800k 3.5") floppy discs.  It took me 13 nights to get it cause we were all only allowed 1 hour a day (traffic problems) and it took actually about an hour and 10 or 15 minutes - I got permission from the Sysop to go over my limit to at least get a full disc each night...  I finally GOT IT ALL - was in PIG HEAVEN - just loading the sample picture of the Indian Headdress on a 386/DX40 took almost 20 minutes to draw it all.  I had 8-megs of RAM!

I ran it on that machine for about a year before finally getting a new 486 - designed for the printing business I worked for like mad on that lil' sucker too...

thats why o-rars were split into 20mb files. Ipretty sure its 20mb files, I havent downloaded a dc game in months. but anyways, 20mb on dial up = 1 night of download. repeat that process for 2 weeks or what ever and you got a dc game fo free.

I also bet if they has used dvds it probably would of done alot better.
