It's definitely fair of Microsoft to try and protect its intellectual property. However I'm a paying customer and I expect that if I pay for their product I will not be hassled by their anti piracy measures. Personally I rather have them invest the money they get from paying customers on creating more value for other people to buy their products than to create more "measures" against piracy. We all know that products with any form of DRM have a worse user experience than those exact same products without.
