Yes easy to crack, but if caught you would be banned (temp, sometimes longer).

the thing I don't like about having the CD in is that I find that the CD/DVD drives are getting burnt out slowly.  don't respond as fast as they used to.

That would be a great reason ;), but you could buy a 250gb eternal HDD for around 100 USD (cheaper than it used to be, or just get a 250gb HDD for around 75 USD).
