:) so all the game companies that use the bink codec are pirating themselves? and even microsoft, who has a page on their support site on how to fix the errors is supporting piracy in turn? wow, the world is more complicated than i thought.

and i did read the whole page i referenced. it said that ONE type of blnk errors is MOSTLY from "cracked" programs or trying to play without a cd or dvd. but it also lists the other reasons too, including an under powered video card.

my point is that it isnt fair to just accuse someone of theft with evidence
