Reply to comment by TheLuminary in ELI5 : Physical and Digital video games piracy protection. And how hackers are still able to find their way around it. by SolarSpud

This is a great answer for digital protection. Physical piracy would be where you physically need the game disk to play the game. But physical disks can still be copied. Either to another disk, or to a hard drive.

My answer also explains why you can use copied disks with genuine hardware.. because someone figured out the key.
