    I wanna buy SPORE bad! I like steam's buisness plan of installing on any computer thru their software as many times as u like. They don't carry spore. Any other good "reputable" places to buy it that I don't have to fear of them going under and losing the ability to play my games?

    Sorry, but that is a part of Spore's DRM that you have to live with.
