<h2>Will you guys remove the CD-key check?</h2>
<p>
This is literally the only frequenty asked question we get, and it's starting to
wear on us. <strong>No,</strong> we will not be removing the CD-key check. The
Quake III: Arena data is <em>not</em> free, and you <strong>must</strong> purchase
a CD to play it! Don't let this confuse you, the engine is open source, and is absolutely
100% free. If someone makes a new game based on the source code that does not use
the pay-for game data, they of course don't need to and should not require a CD
key in their game.
