Soulfire777, I've said it before and I'll say it again. 10 day reactivation plans were abandoned by EA after the response from fans. It was originally proposed that this would be used on Spore and Mass Effect, but after the proposals were dropped they never used them on an EA game.
And as Lt_Kirby said, the 3 install limit was increased to 5 installs, and they made it easy to deactivate previous installs if you ran out of installs (similar to how you can deauthorise computers on iTunes).
And that's not to say I support SecuROM. For my personal experience, I've never had trouble with it, and I never noticed it while installing and running Spore. I know others were not so lucky, and I do disagree with the principle of a game which you buy installing secondary software of any kind, whether it's Sony's SecuROM or anything else, without first asking for your permission. I also believe that if it is not declared on the box then it should be optional to install such extra software.
But, as I said, I know that it is not a problem for me, and does not conflict with any of my hardware, so it doesn't affect my decision to buy TS3.
