I was previously posted this post at the kopitiam Q&A and i found i post the wrong side so i move it to here. This should be a more proper place of asking my question.


Wanna ask that if i bought an original copy of game(Football Manager 2010 Mac/Pc compatible) and i install at my own personal laptop(mac) , then i install it again at my office laptop(windows). If i go to update the game to the latest at both laptop, will my original cd-keys blacklist by the developer? Is it illegal for me to do like that? Or i can just install on both laptop, but only use 1 to update?

Let me know,
Thanks.

Therefore customers that buy genuine Football Manager 2010 boxed copies will be able to play the game with no activation. Players using this route will be required to have the DVD in the drive at all times whilst playing.

People choosing to buy digitally from STEAM will receive a version of the game protected by STEAM’s standard activation and DRM and all the benefits and add –ons you get from activating with STEAM, which Miles deals with below. Activating or buying through STEAM means that you do not need to have the DVD in drive when you play following activation.

Consumers buying the PC version through other digital download partners will receive versions of the game protected by Uniloc and including DRM, containing a much improved system over the one used on FM2009 and fixes to all the common errors experienced. There is not a digital download solution that meets our criteria that is not DRM based, so as we still wanted to provide digital download versions of the game, this was the best solution.

Consumers buying the Mac version through digital download will be able to do this via our normal Mac partner, eSellerate.
