Stardock - From Indie Developer to Publisher

Consumed_Crustacean writes "GameDaily has an interview with Brad Wardell, CEO of Stardock Systems. In the interview, they discuss Stardock's transition from a smallish independent developer to a full-blown publisher (both retail and online). Of particular interest is the discussion on DRM and their online distribution, which Wardell opposes, and said 'Software piracy is something that tends to be overblown. The question for us boils down to the number of sales lost due to piracy versus the number of sales lost due to people not wanting to be inconvenienced.'"

This is ironic, I read a post the other day that Brad made back in 2003 on his JoeUser site and I was going to post something here about how I thought his position was dead on and that I wished other publishers thought about DRM the same way.. Reading the posts on /. is pretty impressive, for that many of the /.ers to come out in support of a company like SD really says something about the products and services offered.. I for one am very happy with my years of OD subscriptions and I may even give GalCiv II a try when it comes out. Keep up the great work SD!
