I couldn't play my legally purchased copy of KOTOR II thanks to the DRM without cracking it.

I'd argue that cracks, even if not KeyGens, have legal applications. Especially now when some companies include DRM which might cripple your game should they go out of business and their servers go down.

Even though I can see why this is a flawed argument, I feel the need to make it anyway: Cracks aren't illegal some countries, either.

[edit: replaced an 'or' with an 'and'. This mistake happens when I code too, sadly!)
