Nice change of pace.

The attitude here on ZDNet is a nice change of
pace to the typical childish backlash on many
other sites regarding this issue.

It is very likely that battle.net 2.0 will
include the ability for players to make private
local matches all by meeting up on battle.net
first. This means that a high speed connection
is not required, but certainly preferred. LAN
players could share a 56k modem to create the
private battle.net local match. I fail to see
how this minor inconvenience is such a big
deal.

So, I think you're right. The majority of the
backlash must be from people that are upset
that they won't be able to easily pirate this
game.
