As far as I know SecuROM is popular because it takes a bit longer to crack, thus helping the publishers secure the critical sales of the first week. Afterwards many studios remove it again to make it actually playable.

I guess that's also why AAA games are hyped so much before release, so that many people preorder it.

Ahh, fair enough. Thinking about it, that comment was probably from 10 years ago when almost everything was cracked near day one and Steam hadn't yet reached 100% penetration.

Never thought about it this way, but it does make perfect sense. Thanks!
